EU parliament lifts Catalan ex-leader s immunity © Reuters Former Catalan President Carles Puigdemont (C), Toni Comín (L) and Clara Ponsatí left Spain after the 2017 referendum
The European Parliament has voted to waive the immunity of former Catalan leader Carles Puigdemont and two other Catalan separatist MEPs.
The politicians left Spain in 2017 following a failed independence referendum, which Madrid said was illegal.
The vote left the country facing its deepest political crisis in decades.
The decision could help Spain s bid to extradite the separatists, who have been charged with sedition.
All three reject the charges against them.
In 2019, Spain sentenced nine other Catalan leaders to between nine and 13 years in prison over their role in the independence vote.
