- 7 years ago
Spain’s state prosecutor on Thursday asked a High Court judge to jail Catalan secessionist leaders pending an investigation over their role in Catalonia’s illegal push for independence, a Reuters source said.
Nine members of the former Catalan administration today (November 2) testified on charges of sedition, rebellion and misuse of public funds.
The prosecutor recommended that Santi Vila should be granted bail of 50,000 euros.
He had been pushing for a negotiated solution with the government since stepping down from the Catalan cabinet ahead of last Friday’s independence declaration.
