The owner of an apartment that was rented in Tbilisi by two women-members of the LGBT community is accused of beating them up. The attack on people of non-traditional sexual orientation was the second in the capital of Georgia within a week.

The incident took place in one of the central districts of Tbilisi.

Two representatives of the LGBT community were attacked by the owner of the apartment they were renting. One of the victims of the attack needed doctors' care, the "Rustavi-2" reported on its website on April 24.

This is the second case of an attack on LGBT women within the past week. On April 20, in Tbilisi, a neighbour attacked a lesbian couple in the yard of their house.
