Mako Gomuri / Victim
Caution! Due to inherent human biases, it may seem that reports on articles aligning with our views are crafted by opponents. Conversely, reports about articles that contradict our beliefs might seem to be authored by allies. However, such perceptions are likely to be incorrect. These impressions can be caused by the fact that in both scenarios, articles are subjected to critical evaluation. This report is the product of an AI model that is significantly less biased than human analyses and has been explicitly instructed to strictly maintain 100% neutrality.
Nevertheless, HonestyMeter is in the experimental stage and is continuously improving through user feedback. If the report seems inaccurate, we encourage you to submit feedback , helping us enhance the accuracy and reliability of HonestyMeter and contributing to media transparency.
Leaving out relevant contextual or balancing information that would help readers fully understand the situation.
The article states that the Prosecutor’s Office contacted Mako Gomuri and that Gakharia’s charge was re-qualified to intentional serious injury, and that he has been sentenced to pre-trial detention in absentia. It does not provide: - Any response or position from Giorgi Gakharia or his representatives. - Any explanation of what the re-qualification legally means (e.g., what the previous charge was, what penalties the new charge entails). - Any broader context about the 20–21 June 2019 events beyond a brief mention. This creates a one-directional narrative: the victim’s perspective and the prosecution’s procedural step are presented, but the defense side is absent.
Add a short explanation of the previous legal qualification of the charges and what has changed with the re-qualification to ‘intentional serious injury’ (e.g., relevant articles of the criminal code, potential penalties).
Include, if available, a comment or previously stated position from Giorgi Gakharia or his legal team regarding the 20–21 June events and the charges against him, or explicitly state that they were contacted and declined to comment.
Provide one or two sentences of neutral background on the 20–21 June 2019 events (e.g., nature of the protest, scale of injuries, general legal proceedings) to situate the reader without advocating for any side.
Presenting information predominantly from one side without proportionate representation of other relevant perspectives.
The article quotes only Mako Gomuri’s social media post and describes the Prosecutor’s Office’s action. There is no mention of Gakharia’s perspective, any defense arguments, or independent legal analysis. While this is common in short news briefs, it still results in a tilt toward the victim/prosecution narrative.
Add a sentence summarizing any known public statements by Gakharia about the June 20–21 events or the charges, or clearly note that no comment was available at the time of publication.
If space allows, include a brief neutral legal expert comment explaining what re-qualification of charges typically implies and that it does not predetermine guilt.
Clarify that the pre-trial detention in absentia is a procedural measure and that Gakharia is presumed innocent until proven guilty, to balance the impression created by mentioning detention and serious charges.
- This is an EXPERIMENTAL DEMO version that is not intended to be used for any other purpose than to showcase the technology's potential. We are in the process of developing more sophisticated algorithms to significantly enhance the reliability and consistency of evaluations. Nevertheless, even in its current state, HonestyMeter frequently offers valuable insights that are challenging for humans to detect.
