CATALONIA
'International legal experts from a Quebec research institute raised
concerns on Wednesday about the trial of Catalan independence leaders in
Spain's Supreme Court.
Observing day 33 of the trial, professor of
international and constitutional law at the Montreal University, Daniel
Turp, expressed his concerns about possible rights infringements.
"We believe there are issues relating to human rights, to the protection
of the rights of the accused, and maybe the larger issue of freedom
of expression, of association, maybe even the issue of theright of
self-determination of the Catalan people," he told Catalan News.'
