An unjust sentence, vindictive and condemnable
TS failure consume an attack on the fundamental rights which is necessary to reject mobilized. The Supreme Court has made public the decision to 12 independence leaders judged by the process. There were no discrepancies between the seven judges presided over by Manuel Marchena who decided unanimously: between 9 Y 13 years in prison for sedition and embezzlement, with disqualification. All instruction of the Prosecutor was assembled based on the crime of rebellion with violence, but it was dismantled by witnesses. It was a farce of such proportions that neither could sustain the TS. The judges considered that there was violence at the rally outside the headquarters of the Ministry of Economy's 20 September and inside and outside polling stations 1-O, but they were not instigated by separatists tried. Actually, Both events were huge demonstrations mobilized popular participation in the violence the only existing law enforcement agencies staged the State.
The court has ruled that "riotous" mobilizations were promoted to hinder law enforcement and judicial action. Based on this, He has attributed the crime of sedition: The former vice president of the Government Oriol Junqueras, the exconsejeros Jordi Turull, Josep Rull, Joaquim Oven, Raul Romeva and Dolors Bassa; the former president of Parliament Carme Forcadell; and leaders Catalan National Assembly (ANC) and of Omnium Jordi Sanchez and Jordi Cuixart. Bulrushes and five exconsejeros already incarcerated were also convicted for embezzlement. The court finds that used money allocated to their departments for the referendum 1-O, declared illegal. They shall apply "Medial contest", that is to say, not because they have tested the use of such funds but by the consideration that the sedition could not be produced without embezzlement. Defenses have already announced they will appeal to the Constitutional Court and the European Court of Human Rights. The judicial inquiry is very far from over. There are still six separatists in exile, ellos between the Government of the Former President Carlos Puigdemont, he expects court to judge from the reactivation of detention euroórdenes. And there are hundreds of activists prosecuted and persecuted as cases of Adri, Tamara, Laia and Lluís or 23S detainees in Sabadell.

The whole trial was a farce, It was vindictive, unfair and intimidating. He was not focused on the truth of the facts but in the exemplary punishment of independence, following the guidance provided by the political power. So again it confirmed that it is dependent justice of political power, whose judges are handpicked their employees, It is acting as legal arm of those who seek to solve the enormous problems judicializing Spanish politicians and punishing those who think differently and demand for it. Convicts are 12, but it is a decision that goes against the two million Catalans who voted yes or no in the referendum on October 1. It was an entire people who sat on the bench and sentenced.
The institutions of the regime 78 They are absolutely outdated, they can not offer any progressive solution to the democratic and social demands of the majority of workers or the claims of the peoples of the Spanish State. Parliamentary monarchy, Forge born Franco and molding the characters and part in the transition, It is increasingly retrograde, anachronistic and repressive. Today it is expressed primarily against the Catalans, but also it makes it against all the Gag Law, cuts democratic freedoms, adjustments and curtailed social rights at the expense of satisfying EU, World Bank and IMF.
A European "advanced democracies" they drop the mask. Let me see repression of social demands and democratic. Human rights abuses immigrants to xenophobia practiced by governments and people left to die in the Mediterranean Sea. Attack on workers' achievements, with brutal labor reforms, layoffs, low wages, expensive rents and the destruction of public health and education. The EU imperialist bloc serves only to ensure the profits of big business and bankers, to cut freedoms and impose their borders to European peoples. The EU is one of the jailers of the Catalan people, to which he has consistently denied recognition of the right to self-determination.
This new violation of the Spanish State should receive a resounding rejection in Catalunya, in the towns of Europe and around the world.
Convictions will not be received not with resignation or idly, in fact They have already begun. Nonetheless, Catalan people are still mobilized for the freedom of political prisoners and their right to self-determination. Knowing that the sentence is rejected by the people, the regime 78 I have answered: threatening to reapply the 155 and a device that has begun to run since last Saturday. It consists of the deployment of 2000 Additional police and civil guards in Catalunya, organized by the Ministry of the Interior. A Mossos d'Esquadra in the activity will add an extra 1000 riot gear. Those responsible for this situation are the King, the PP, the PSOE and the guarantee as citizens and VOX.
This new violation of the Spanish State should receive a resounding rejection in Catalunya, in the towns of Europe and around the world. Those who call themselves Republicans, progressive or left should be the first to condemn the actions of the regime. from SOL, as part of the International Socialist League, We continue fighting alongside the Catalan people on the streets. mass mobilization, disobedience and general strike for freedom of political prisoners and exiles and self-determination.
