The human rights organisation disputed the Spanish Supreme Court’s definition of ‘sedition’, the charge facing exiled Catalan minister Clara Ponsati

Former Catalan minister appears at Edinburgh Sheriff Court after handing herself in to Scottish police following a European Arrest Warrant from Spain

-          After being released on bail, Clara Ponsati will next appear in court on 12 December

-          A full hearing for the former Catalan minister is likely to take place in Spring, 2020, according to her lawyer Aamer Anwar

-          Ponsati views the charge of sedition against her as “politically motivated prosecution”

UK authorities have returned the European Arrest Warrant for the former Catalan minister to Spain, which Ponsati’s lawyer argues contains “glaring contradictions”

-          Court date for exiled former Catalan education minister cancelled after European Arrest Warrant is returned to Spain for clarification

-          The translated warrant reportedly refers to ‘Rebellion’ – a crime which Ponsati has not been charged with’ – and mentions Ponsati on only two pages out of 59

The former Catalan minister’s legal team will “robustly” oppose her extradition following the issue of a new European Arrest Warrant
