Alleged Allegations

Slander penalties must be harsh in Georgia.

Vladimer Arutunian, the man "allegedly suspected" of tossing a grenade at President Bush during his visit to Tbilisi, Georgia, has been arrested, thanks in part to his allegedly appearing in an "alleged photo".

Allegedly.

According to Georgian Interior Minister Vano Merabishvili, as quoted in Civil Georgia Online Magazine:

Arutunian was wounded in a shootout [with police] and was arrested shortly after [the shootout] by the special purpose unit.

In recent months, the Interior Ministry in cooperation with the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation carried out a huge amount of work. We could pinpoint an alleged photo of suspect, I want to stress the alleged photo. As a result, in the recent days we have received number of information about alleged, I want to stress, the alleged suspect.

The "alleged suspect"?  Hey, Georgia, I hereby suspect him.  You can go ahead and call him an actual, honest-to-goodness suspect now.
