Political prisoners. That's how the Catalan president defines the two pro-independence leaders who were jailed yesterday in an unprecedented decision by Spain's National Audience court. Jordi Cuixart and Jordi Sànchez, responsible for organising the biggest pro-independence demonstrations ever, always peacefully, are to spend their second night in prison. They were imprisoned without bail while they await trial on sedition charges. The court's decision escalated tensions between Catalonia and Spain even further, promoting condemnation from almost all parts of the political spectrum. 200,000 people protested in the streets, while a big march is planned for Saturday.
