The next night the horse and milk-cow were both stolen. This is the fourth time they stole my horse. I addressed the police after each fact of stealing, but they could not uncover any case,” – Zurab Sadunashvili stated to Kakheti Information Center.
Horses were stolen from two more families several days ago. Grape harvest has been taken from four families.
