Activist, Nata Peradze threw blue paint on the icon on January 9, Ednews reports.
On January 10, an angry mob in Tbilisi swarmed the house of activist Nata Peradze after she posted a video online showing blue paint splattered on the icon in question in the cathedral.
The crowd threatened to "carry out what the state and law failed to."
But police prevented a possible attack on Peradze, who later told RFE/RL that she was the person who threw the paint on the icon, though the panel where Stalin was depicted was unharmed.
