Clashes Between Catalan Pro-Independence Protesters And Police Continue At Barcelona Airport
From: / russiatoday
October 15, 2019 - A protester who lost his eye in clashes outside Barcelona's airport was among the injured overnight Monday into Tuesday, as tensions erupted over the convictions of Catalan separatist leaders.
He was among 170 who were injured in the clashes, 40 of them police officers, between angry protesters and riot police at Barcelona's international airport and elsewhere across the north-eastern Spanish region.
Spanish authorities announced an investigation into the group organising the protests, as new disruptions to Catalonia's transportation network took shape on Tuesday.
In a landmark ruling Monday, Spain's Supreme Court acquitted the Catalan politicians and activists from the more serious crime of rebellion for pushing ahead with a banned referendum on Oct. 1, 2017, and declaring independence based on its results.
But judges found nine of them guilty of sedition and handed down prison terms of nine to 13 years.
Four of them were additionally convicted of misuse of public funds and three were fined for disobedience.
