5/13 These arrests were not the first ones. In April 2018, activists @TamaraVila83+@EtVolemACasa homes were raided by police in the morning. Adrià could flee the country and exile in 🇧🇪, but Tamara was apprehended.

8/13 So is freedom of speech as shown by the case of the rapper Valtònyc, condemned to 3.5 years jail on charges of terrorism because of the lyrics of his songs. He is also in exile in Belgium.

9/13 🇪🇸 misuses the accusation of terrorism to fight political dissidence,+applies strict anti-terrorist law to repress the exercise of freedom of expression, assembly and political affiliation.

10/13 Spain intends to impose a false image of violence and unrest in Catalonia, as well as to intimidate the pro-independence movement.

Dani Gallardo, a young Andalusian antifascist, is spending his birthday in pre-trial prison without bail under false accusations of violence against the police.
#DaniLibertad
His "real crime" was to participate in a protest demonstration against the Draconian sentences against the Catalan leaders in Madrid.
#DaniLibertad
Spain persecutes systematically any dissidence connected to minorities, anti-fascism and leftist and progressive ideologies. Dani is a political prisoner in a EU member state.

1/12 As you may have read, Podemos is being formally accused of illegal funding and investigated by a judge in Spain. What is going on in Spain? ⬇️
elmundo.es/espana/2020/08…
2/12 Also, many leaders of Podemos are publicly complaining about a campaign against them. Right-wing judges coordinated with a set of right-wing media to falsely accuse Podemos of corruption
3/12 First, there is a problem of partisanims in the Spanish judiciary system. For many years, Spanish press and even judges have been investigating Catalan and Basque politicians and activists without enough evidence. This is called 'investigación prospectiva'.

80 jaar geleden werd de Catalaanse President Lluís Companys gearresteerd door de Gestapo. Hij werd uitgeleverd aan Spanje, waar hij werd gemarteld en vermoord. Spanje beschouwde President Companys tot 2018 wettelijk als een crimineel.
De moord op Companys is niet alleen de geschiedenis. In 2017 bedreigde de voorzitter van de meest gekozen politieke partij in Spanje @populares @pablocasado_ @KRLS door te zeggen dat hij net als Lluis Companys "zou kunnen eindigen". Image
Hoewel de Spaanse regering de oneerlijkheid van het proces in 2018 symbolisch aan de President Lluis Companys heeft toegegeven. Maar het heeft het doodvonnis nooit juridisch geannuleerd.

📢De impact van de beslissing van het Belgische Hof over de situatie van @LluisPuigGordi heeft verstrekkende gevolgen waarvan u misschien niet op de hoogte bent. Deze beslissing heeft de slechte praktijken van het Spaanse Hooggerechtshof aan het licht gebracht. ⬇️
Zal de @Europarl_NL het verzoek om opheffing van de immuniteit tegen @KRLS @ClaraPonsati en @toni_comin aannemen? Nu de Belgische rechter heeft geoordeeld dat het Spaanse hooggerechtshof onbevoegd was om zelfs maar het Europees arrestatiebevel te sturen.
Zal de @Europarl_NL @KRLS @ClaraPonsati en @toni_comin naar dezelfde rechter sturen die het Europees arrestatiebevel van @LluisPuigGordi heeft afgewezen?
