The activists sought to commemorate IDAHOT 2016, as well as remember the 2013 attacks that took place in Tbilisi against an anti-homophobia rally, which was sanctioned and lead by Georgian church leaders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Plain-clothed police officers forced the activists into cars without identifying themselves, taking them to a police station under arrest. On the same day two of the 10 activists were released. On May 25 several of them were also released by court decision after verbal warning, while the others are still undergoing trial for damaging the view of the city and for resisting the police, even though the police had not identified themselves at the time of the arrest. At the same time, the World Congress of Families was taking place in Tbilisi, an international conference of right-wing Christian, anti-LGBT organizations that, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, is \u201cone of the key driving forces behind the U.S. religious right\u2019s global export of homophobia and sexism.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Later on May 21, 2016, a member of an ultranationalist conservative group attacked three LGBT activists, including member of LGBT Georgia Beka Gabadadze and member of the Temida, Koba Bitsadze, in central Tbilisi. The man, who was visibly drunk, attempted to rally support and incite violence against the activists from passersby, even threatening to shoot them with a gun. Police arrived quickly at the scene and took the attacker and the activists into custody. Though Georgian law criminalizes discrimination and hate-motivated crimes, the attacker was fine 100 lari (about 50 US dollar<i>s<\/i>) for his actions. He was quoted as citing religious objections for his actions. Meanwhile that same day, two men were attacked in Tbilisi after they were perceived to be gay. \u00a0Two of the victims were seriously injured and taken to the hospital.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">PINK Armenia stands in full solidarity with Georgia\u2019s LGBT community, and severely condemns all forms of violence enacted against community members and activists. We are very concerned by the situation in Georgia, and wish to express our full support to all peaceful sections of society who struggle for equality, democracy, and human rights protection. LGBT Georgians deserve to live lives free from violence, in security, and without shame, lives equal in dignity and value to all other Georgians.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:
