Georgian law enforcers tell about mother with children detained in South Ossetia

Russian militaries have detained a woman with two young children near the village of Atotsi on the border with South Ossetia.

The detainee was not brought to the detention centre in Tskhinvali and was released, the Georgian "Channel One" reports.

The priest was soon released; and the shepherd was taken to the detention centre and later handed over to Georgia.
