At the same time, the court intends to interrogate his comrades-in-arms. As reported by the Spanish newspaper El Pais, Puchdemona and other former members of the government of Catalonia should arrive in court on November 2 and 3.
However, if they do not appear to give evidence, each of them will be put on the wanted list for further arrest. The police also noted that if Puchdemon and other officials do not return from Brussels, then they will be arrested by Belgian police officers.
Recall, the prosecutor's office accuses former members of the Catalan government of organizing a riot.
As reported URA-Inform, the Spanish Prosecutor General's Office on Monday, October 30, charged the former head of the regional administration of Catalonia Carles Puigdemona. Charges are also put forward to other members of Madrid's disbanded regional administration and Parliament of Catalonia.
In turn, Puchdemon stated that he arrived in Belgium not to seek political asylum and promised to return to Spain if a fair trial is ensured.
