LONDON--(Business Wire)--In a statement today, Georgian presidential candidate, Badri
Patarkatsishvili, said:

   "Today, on December 23, the Sunday Times of London published a
story exposing a plot to assassinate me. I appeal to the authorities
of Georgia to start an immediate investigation into this matter and
hold those behind the plot accountable for their actions. If the
authorities fail to respond to this urgent appeal and do not take
appropriate steps, they will be held responsible for that."
