There are already fewer sovereign leaders convicted of sedition by the Supreme Court serving the sentence in a completely closed regime. The Board of Treatment of the Lledoners prison agreed on Thursday to apply article 100.2 of the prison regulations to the former Vice President of the Generalitat, Oriol Junqueras, and former Minister Raül Romeva. The two will leave six hours a day three days a week to work, according to the Secretary of Mesures Penals, Reintegration and Attention to the Victim of the Department of Justice, controlled by the Regional Minister Ester Capella of ERC, the same party as Junqueras.

In this way Junqueras and Romeva join Jordi Cuixart, Jordi Sànchez, Joaqum Forn, Dolors Bassa and Carmne Forcadell who have already left the prisons in which they are held a few hours a day to volunteer, work or care for relatives with advanced age . By the judgment of the Supreme Junqueras and Romeva they will not be able to carry out works for the administration since they are disabled for them. There are two other prisoners who go to work: Cuixart in the company he owns and Forn hired in the production company of Jaume Roures Mediapro.

The departure of Junqueras and Romeva can be immediate. While a prison surveillance court must validate or not these exits. The Prosecutor's Office has opposed all the previous ones denouncing that it was a "third degree undercover."
