Georgians take on predatory lending

This week, we hear from Marina Khatiashvili, who was evicted alongside her family, and we speak to OC Media journalist and co-director Mariam Nikuradze about the protests surrounding the eviction, and to the Social Justice Centre's Salome Shubladze about predatory lending and the government's handling of the situation.
