From August 1990 until December 1991 Labakhua served as senior assistant Attorney in the Azov-Black Sea environmental prosecutor's office in Sukhumi.
Throughout the rest of the nineties, Labakhua fulfilled various roles within Abkhazia's customs departments.

Mayor of Sukhumi
On 15 May 2007, President Sergei Bagapsh released Alias Labkhua from his post in the State Customs Committee and appointed him acting Mayor of Sukhumi, a post temporarily fulfilled by former Vice-Mayor Anzor Kortua after former mayor Astamur Adleiba had been fired on 2 May for corruption.
On 2 September, Labakhua won by-elections in constituency No. 21, which had become necessary after Adleiba relinquished his seat on 23 July. Adleiba was the only candidate and was elected with 265 votes in favour and 2 against, out of a total 789 voters registered (a turnout of 34%).[2] Since Adleiba was now a member of the city assembly, president Bagapsh could permanently appoint him Mayor of Sukhumi on 18 September.[3]
Following the May 2014 Revolution and the election of Raul Khajimba, Labakhua was dismissed as mayor and succeeded by Adgur Kharazia on 22 October 2014.[4]
