NOS says Spain's Supreme Court freed Puigdemont; taz says the Constitutional Court did, and five of its judges call it overreach

Spain's Supreme Court withdrew the arrest warrant for Carles Puigdemont on 6 October, hours after the Constitutional Court ruled that the amnesty must cover embezzlement. He can now go home after nearly nine years abroad. Outlets disagree on which court acted and on what to call him.

What happened. Spain's Constitutional Court ruled that courts must apply the 2024 amnesty law to Catalan separatists, even where they face embezzlement charges, NOS and El Mundo report. Supreme Court judge Pablo Llarena then lifted the national arrest warrant for Puigdemont and two former ministers, Toni Comín and Lluís Puig, El Mundo says.

Which court acted. The reports put a different court at the front.

Outlet Who acted What it calls him His years away
NOS Supreme Court 'separatistenleider' 'ballingschap', but also 'vluchtte'
Der Standard Supreme Court 'Separatistenführer' 'Exil'
taz Constitutional Court — 'Exil'
El Mundo Constitutional Court, then Judge Llarena 'ex presidente catalán' 'fuera de España'

The vote. El Mundo says the Constitutional Court split seven to five. No other report we hold gives a count. In a second El Mundo report, the five dissenting judges say the court 'suplanta la labor del Tribunal Supremo'.

The reactions. Catalan president Salvador Illa told El Mundo: 'El tiempo nos ha dado la razón.' Junts called it a victory 'que permite el regreso del presidente de un país'. That report quotes three voices, and all three welcome the ruling.

What is not settled. The Supreme Court has yet to apply the amnesty to the embezzlement charge itself, El Mundo says. No report gives a date for his return. No report we hold quotes anyone who opposes the amnesty.

This story is about whether Carles Puigdemont, who led Catalonia's failed 2017 bid to leave Spain, can come home without being arrested.

How it got here. Catalonia is one of Spain's 17 autonomous regions. It has its own government, the Generalitat. On 1 October 2017 Puigdemont's government held a referendum on independence that Spain's Constitutional Court had suspended. Later that month the Catalan parliament declared independence. Madrid took direct control of the region under Article 155 of the constitution, and Puigdemont left for Belgium. Ministers who stayed were tried by the Supreme Court in 2019 and jailed for up to 13 years, NOS reports. Pedro Sánchez's government pardoned most of them in 2021. In 2019 Puigdemont became a member of the European Parliament.

In 2023 Sánchez needed the votes of Puigdemont's party, Junts, to stay in office. An amnesty law for the independence campaign followed in 2024. The Supreme Court then refused to apply it to the charge of embezzling public money for the referendum. That refusal kept the arrest warrant alive.

The actors. The Supreme Court is Spain's highest ordinary court, and it ran the case against him. The Constitutional Court is a separate body. It rules on whether laws and court decisions respect the constitution, and citizens can appeal to it when they say their rights were breached. El Mundo reports that this ruling came from one such appeal, by former Catalan minister Dolors Bassa. Salvador Illa, a Socialist, now heads the Catalan government. Junts and the left-wing ERC are the main pro-independence parties.

What is at stake. Supporters see the amnesty as closing a political conflict. Critics, including five Constitutional Court judges, say one court is overruling another court's reading of the law.

Where it stands. The warrant is gone. The embezzlement charge still has to be formally dropped. NOS reports that Spain votes in a snap election on 29 November, with Junts low in the polls.

What is being argued about

  • Which court freed Puigdemont: the Supreme Court, which lifted the warrant, or the Constitutional Court, which made it do so
  • Whether the Constitutional Court overstepped, as its five dissenting judges say
  • What to call him and his years away: 'separatist leader' or 'president', 'exile' or 'fled'
  • What his return means weeks before a snap election

The bias in this coverageBias

Two courts, one decision

Some reports credit the Supreme Court with lifting the warrant. Others lead with the Constitutional Court's ruling that forced the change. Only one report gives the dissenting judges' view that the Constitutional Court overstepped.

3 reports naming the Supreme Court as the court that lifted the warrant 1 reports giving the dissenting judges' view 3 reports calling his years abroad 'exile' 6 reports we hold on the event
Scored without the mastheads. Where the two passes differ, both are kept.

true Puigdemont can now return to Spain after about nine years abroad without being arrested.
NOS, Der Standard and taz say he can return as a free man, and El Mundo says the lifted warrant clears his return for good. El Mundo also notes that the Supreme Court has still to apply the amnesty to the embezzlement charge itself.

NOS names the Supreme Court as the court that acted and calls the 2017 referendum illegal in its own voice. It adds the 29 November election date and says Junts is low in the polls.
Het arrestatiebevel tegen de Catalaanse separatistenleider Carles Puigdemont is ingetrokken door het Spaanse Hooggerechtshof. Puigdemont kan zo na negen jaar in ballingschap geleefd te hebben als vrij man terugkeren naar zijn land zonder te worden aangehouden. Puigdemont vluchtte in 2017 naar België, nadat de poging van Catalonië om zich af te scheiden van Spanje was mislukt. Een referendum over afscheiding was volgens het Spaans Hooggerechtshof illegaal. In Brussel werd hij uiteindelijk in 2019 Europarlementariër. Puigdemont werd ook vervolgd voor het verduisteren van overheidsgeld. Daarom go
Actor named: Names the Supreme Court as the court that withdrew the warrant. — “is ingetrokken door het Spaanse Hooggerechtshof”
Stated flat: Calls the 2017 referendum illegal in the outlet's own voice, without attribution. — “na een illegaal referendum”
Who is named acting: Names the Supreme Court as the court that withdrew the warrant — “Het arrestatiebevel tegen de Catalaanse separatistenleider Carles Puigdemont is ingetrokken door het Spaanse Hooggerechtshof.”
Asserted vs attributed: Calls the 2017 referendum illegal in the outlet's own voice; an earlier line gave the same judgement to the Supreme Court — “na een illegaal referendum”

Vor der Neuwahl am 29. November steht in Spanien der erste Generalstreik seit 2012 an. Die beiden größten Gewerkschaftsbünde CCOO und UGT erhöhen damit angesichts der Wohnungskrise den Druck auf die Parteien. Der 24 Stunden andauernde Ausstand, dessen Datum noch nicht feststeht, diene dazu „angemessene Löhne für den Zugang zu angemessenem Wohnraum einzufordern“. Der Arbeitergeberverband kritisierte den Streik, bei dem es vor allem um Wohnungen gehe, als „unzulässig“. Wie groß der Unmut ist, zeigte am Montagabend eine Demonstration gegen Mieterhöhungen und -spekulation in Barcelona, an der mehr

dpa | Als der katalanische Separatistenführer und damalige Regionalregierungschef Kataloniens, Carles Puigdemont, am 30. Oktober 2017 nach Belgien floh, rechnete er wohl nicht damit, dass neun Jahre bis zu seiner möglichen Rückkehr ins Land gehen würden. Nach dem gescheiterten Versuch, die finanzstarke Region Katalonien im Nordosten des Landes aus Spanien herauszubrechen, musste er untertauchen und wurde von Unterstützern in einer Nacht-und-Nebel-Aktion ins Exil nach Belgien geschleust. Seither bestand ein Haftbefehl gegen ihn, der nun nach einem heutigen Grundsatzurteil des Verfassungsgericht
