Tbilisi City Court has sentenced four individuals to five years and six months in prison for psychological and physical abuse of Khanum Jeiranova, a woman found dead in 2014 in eastern Georgia’s Sagarejo municipality, the Prosecutor’s Office of Georgia announced on Tuesday.
The sentencing follows the highly publicised case following the death of Jeiranova, who suffered severe abuse from her husband’s relatives.
The state body said the offenders had put Jeiranova in “degrading circumstances on the basis of her gender” and humiliated her in front of locals in a village of the municipality on September 18 of that year.
It also noted Jeiranova was dragged out of a car and verbally and physically assaulted two days prior to her death, with the offenders also restricting her freedom.
The actions of the members of the criminal group cased moral suffering to the victim, due to which she committed suicide on September 18, 2014”, the Office said.
In its statement, the body also mentioned another individual had been charged with “illegal deprivation of liberty and humiliating treatment” in the case, and would stand trial in Tbilisi City Court.
