What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A Spanish Supreme Court judge rejected efforts to reinstate national arrest warrants for Carles Puigdemont and two former ministers, removing an immediate detention risk while criminal proceedings remain open. This decision followed a Constitutional Court ruling that found the Supreme Court had interpreted too broadly the exception regarding the misuse of public funds for personal financial gain, a dispute centered on public spending during Catalonia's 2017 independence effort.
