In January 2012, Tina Bokuchava was appointed as Deputy Head of the Chamber of Control, the country's main state audit agency, serving under the chamber's chairman Levan Bezhashvili. Her term coincided with the Chamber's new increased role in the monitoring of political party financial activities ahead of the 2012 parliamentary election. During her service, she was notably gifted a cell phone by President Mikheil Saakashvili himself in a case that would later be used by prosecutors as evidence of abuse of power by the former president.
