First trial of pro-independence activists suspended in anticipation of the future amnesty law. A Girona criminal court has notified those prosecuted for invading train tracks in the city in 2018 – known as the ’21 reasons’ case from the label the police gave their investigation, 21 razones – that it has suspended the trial scheduled for December 12th and 13th, given the current processing of the law to erase prosecutions related to the Catalan independence process, as notified this Friday. The lawyers of the four people awaiting trial, Montse Vinyets and Benet Salellas, had requested the suspension of the hearing before the registration of the PSOE’s law proposal in Congress, and the lawyer for justice administration at the court, María Jesús Hernández, agreed, with the opposition of the public prosecutor but the approval of the Spanish state solicitor’s office.
