Solidarity Alert (Alerta Solidària) denounces different irregularites of the Spanish inquisition

The Solidarity Alert (Alerta Solidària) group, formed by lawyers and activists, has denounced the different irregularites of the Spanish inquisition in the case of seven Catalans detained by the Spanish military police and later jailed:

First of all, the Spanish "judge" has only conveyed to the defense lawyers the dispositive part of the court order to imprison them, but not the entire order.:

"a. We defense lawyers cannot know all the judge's argument for having ordered precautionary imprisonment b. We defense lawyers cannot file any appeal regarding this decision.

Secondly, after the imprisoning order, the defense lawyers have been prevented from assisting the detainees: When they asked to talk to their defendants, they have been told that the transfer to Soto del Real jail was already arranged and it could not be interrupted. The Alerta Solidària lawyers have asked to meet with them in prison and it has been denied because of the jail's schedule.

All in all, the detainees have had to enter prison without having been able to speak with their defense lawyers. All of which is one more proof of the extremely serious treatment they are being given in all this process. The right to defense, violated again. Most worrying.
