{"id":"GEO-027","notes":"TC-39 primary: state effectively suppresses assembly through orchestrated failure of protection despite advance coordination. Advance law enforcement planning makes police cordon collapse a decision. Documents escalating pattern: 2013 failure to protect outdoor rally; 2021 failure at offices; 2023 failure even at private closed venue — state gradually eliminates all viable assembly formats.","country":"Georgia","sources":[{"url":null,"citation":"Civil Rights Defenders statement July 9, 2023 (crd.org); CRD condemns attack on Tbilisi Pride"}],"summary":"Tbilisi Pride adapted to a closed, private, ticketed outdoor festival at Lisi Wonderland venue to avoid public march confrontation. Organizers coordinated with law enforcement for months in advance. Despite this, approximately 2,000 anti-LGBTQ+ extremists marched on the venue. Police cordons collapsed and yielded to the mob. Extremists breached the venue perimeter, destroyed the festival stage, looted equipment, and burned Pride merchandise and flags. Attendees had to be hastily evacuated by shuttles to prevent mass casualties. State failure was willful rather than negligent: advance planning and coordination had been completed, making the collapse of police cordons a decision rather than a failure of capacity.","tactics":[{"code":"TC-39","role":"primary","label":"Mass Criminalization of Protest and Civic Mobilization","needs_review":false},{"code":"TC-20","role":"secondary","label":"Security Apparatus Enforcement","needs_review":false}],"version":1,"channels":["Physical","Security Apparatus (deliberate inaction)"],"entities":[{"id":819,"name":"Georgian Police; unidentified extremist mob (state-condoned)","role":"actor","entity_type":"Government; Non-State (state-condoned)"},{"id":820,"name":"Tbilisi Pride organizers and festival attendees; Civil Rights Defenders and partner organizations","role":"target","entity_type":"CSO; Individual"}],"date_text":"07/2023","created_at":"2026-09-24T17:50:55.358311+00:00","escalation":4,"harm_track":"Track 3 — Operational Suppression","narratives":[{"code":"LEGACY-N-5c9ec0b9ef8f","role":"primary","label":"National Values / Cultural Sovereignty","needs_review":true},{"code":"LEGACY-N-c422428f906e","role":"secondary","label":"Security Threat","needs_review":true}],"report_ids":[],"signal_ids":[],"updated_at":"2026-09-24T17:50:55.358311+00:00","occurred_on":"2023-07-01","campaign_ids":["GEO-CAMP-002"],"enabler_type":"","response_ids":[],"trigger_type":"TR-05: Reactive to Watchdog Activity","campaign_phase":"Phase 3: Amplification","civic_response":"","date_precision":"month","enabler_status":"","campaigns_served":[],"consequence_category":"Operational Suppression","institutional_consequence":"Pride Fest cancelled; festival infrastructure destroyed; attendees endangered; organizers forced to evacuate"}
