The decision was made during a secret vote in Barcelona on Friday afternoon, reports “Al Jazeera”, Periscopi broadcast.
The names of those who voted for independence were kept hidden, as the Spanish lawyer promised to press charges against those who voted in favour of independence on the charges of <x0-rebeling”.
The statement comes after the Spanish government decided to vote for implementation of Article 155 of the Constitution, which allows Madrid to directly manage the breakaway region.
During the special plenary session in the Catalan parliament on Friday, Carles Riera from the leftist party of candidates for the unification of the people demanded that statements be voted.
“We take this step at our feet, with our heads, not on their knees as prisoners, but as free people without fear, he said./Periscopi/
