Kesaria Abramidze , 37 , was stabbed to death in her home in Tbilisi on Wednesday .

A 26-year-old man has been arrested in the case that has shocked the small South Caucasian nation.

Rights groups have linked the killing to the new anti-LGBT law, arguing the government's promotion of it had fuelled transphobic hate crime.

The legislation restricts rights for LGBT people, including same-sex marriage and gender-affirming surgeries.
