Georgia election chief doused with paint

The head of Georgia's electoral commission has been splashed in a black liquid, believed to be paint, whilst announcing a poll result in parliament.

Official Giorgi Kalandarishvili was doused during the confirmation of a parliamentary poll, which was won by a pro-Russian party.

Kalandarishvili signed a protocol that said Georgian Dream had won another term, which has triggered days of protests in the capital, Tbilisi.

The pro-western president, Salome Zourabichvili, described the vote as illegitimate, accusing Russia of interference.
