Catalan leaders go on trial in Madrid over independence bid

Twelve Catalan politicians will go on trial on Tuesday for their role in Catalonia’s failed 2017 independence bid. The start of the trial on Tuesday will refocus attention on the region’s push for secession. The public prosecutor is seeking prison terms of up to 25 years on charges of rebellion and misuse of public funds.

	Hannibal 6 months Sorry but they attempted to commit treason. If any state legislature or city council actually tried to do this in America they'd be in prison. Even the lunatics on the California bench admitted as much with the Calexit proposition.
