El Tribunal de Cuentas aplica la amnistía a Puigdemont, Mas y otros 31 encausados por los gastos del ‘procés’
El fallo absuelve la responsabilidad contable del proceso independentista que reclamaba la asociación Societat Civil Catalana
Sixty separatists politicians are waiting for their amnesty while the final "yes" arrives for the definitive departure of Carles Puigdemont. The former president is preparing to move to Barcelona from Waterloo, Belgium, his residence for the past nine years. After a long wait following the approval of the amnesty law in 2024 and a complex judicial process, Puigdemont is now waiting for the Supreme Court to certify the measure and absolve him of his responsibilities regarding what happened in Catalonia during the autumn of 2017, the peak of the pro-independence movement.
While the leader of Junts has almost resolved the matter, along with a group of eleven other potential beneficiaries, the amnesty remains an insurmountable wall for sixty politicians and high-ranking officials of the Generalitat who either have been denied it or have cases pending in different courts, according to the latest data compiled by the Alerta Solidària platform.
The collective places the recognition of the amnesty at 80 representatives from parties and 189 activists and demonstrators, making up 54% of all potential beneficiaries in those two categories.
