The country is on the brink of a civil war

GHN reports that an opposition demonstration has taken place in front of the Central Building of the Ministry of Interior where arrested opposition activists are being held in custody. (English versian of the new as well as Civil.ge are lagging behind) 
The building is full of SWAT forces. As a result of fights between opposition activists and Special Forces David Gamkrelidze, Levan Gachechiladze, Bizina Gegidze are beaten. Allegedly, Gia Gachechiladze aka Uznobi, anchor of a highly popular TV show "Cell #5" is detained. 
Other opposition leaders have joined the demonstration. On the other hand, opposition has called for larger protests on May 8th which will escalate this conflict to a higher level. I keep saying that these developments are in the style of a Chronicle of a Death Foretold by Marques. We know that there will be blood and yet, no one wants to do anything about it.
