FORMER Catalan education minister Clara Ponsati was issued with a fresh European arrest warrant today, over her role in 2017’s Catalan independence referendum.
Ms Ponsati, a former professor at St Andrews University, is facing a single charge of sedition related to her involvement in the referendum, held in the autonomous region of Catalonia and later declared illegal by Spanish authorities.
She denies the charge.
