“Puigdemont was detained by the ambassador of his arrival in Sardinia, where he arrived as a member of the European Parliament.
This detention is based on the order of the Spanish Armed Forces of October 14, 2019, which was legally suspended by a ruling of the Court of Justice of the European Union, ”he wrote on Twitter.
In March 2021, members of the European Parliament voted to deprive MEP Carles Puigdemont of parliamentary immunity.
In relation to him, as well as his associates in Spain, proceedings were initiated in connection with the referendum in Catalonia in 2017.
