In May 1918, he was reluctant to support the proclamation of Georgia's independence, but still retained his post.
As a commander of the People's Guard, he was commonly assigned to retain an internal order in the country.
During his tenure, he gained a reputation of a ruthless suppressor of agrarian disturbances in various regions of Georgia.
In March 1921, the Soviet invasion of Georgia forced him into exile.
He returned in 1924 to take part in the preparations for the anti-Soviet rebellion in Georgia.
He was soon arrested, however, and executed by the Soviet Cheka.
