Two policemen of the Georgian Finance Ministry were wounded in a
skirmish that took place yesterday at the checkpoint of Lagodekhi at
the Azeri-Georgian border. As reported by IA Regnum, the skirmish
followed a dispute between the policemen and a group of Azeris, who
were crossing the border.
The collision was stopped after Georgian interior officers arrived at
the scene. It is supposed that the Azeris were trying to smuggle some
goods. Presently the investigation is carried out.
