Well, basque indepence movement involved several deaths, including “civilians”, non politics or police related until 2000s, and people react quite pacific always.
Whereas catalan movement is basically pacifist with some roadblocks and protests and some riots. In front, the typical anti riot police, not fun… but kind of expected.
Honestly, I will be not surprised if this case ends in nothing as it is not clear it can hold in court …
Do you have a link providing clear info on that? Because I have seen only comments, no serious analysis on security whatsoever…
