Health fears over jailed former Georgia president after video appearance

Mikheil Saakashvili appears frail and emaciated on court video link, leading to concern about his treatment

Georgia's former president Mikheil Saakashvili has appeared on television for the first time in months, looking frail and emaciated, fuelling concerns over the detained politician's treatment.

The 55-year-old was almost unrecognisable and looked like a ghost of his former self when he appeared in a video link for a court hearing on Monday.
