Georgian prosecutors to investigate election fraud, summon president to testify

Georgia's Prosecutor's Office said on Wednesday that it was launching an investigation into possible falsification of Saturday's parliamentary election, in which the ruling Georgian Dream party secured a majority that opposition parties said was fraudulent.

It said that Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili, a government critic who has repeatedly said the vote count was falsified, would be summoned for questioning on the probe on Thursday.
