Watch: 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 by David Kirtadze, an opposition party official.
Kalandarishvili signed a protocol that said pro-Russian party 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.
