A suspect in the murder of a spouse in his own home was arrested in Tbilisi.
The bodies of the dead were discovered on the night of November 11 in a residential building in Tbilisi.
According to the Georgian Ministry of Interior, the crime occurred due to a property dispute. It has been proven in the past that the reason for the murder is the defendant's failure to fulfill financial obligations.
The investigation determined that the man opened fire with an automatic weapon at the couple at the entrance to their residential building and caused them several gunshot wounds, and then fled. Both victims died at the scene.
The suspect was detained in hot pursuit as a result of an operational search.
The investigation is being conducted under the premeditated murder of two people under aggravated circumstances and illegal purchase, storage and carrying of weapons.
The accused faces up to 20 years in prison or unlimited imprisonment.
