R Madrid: Spain’s Supreme Court on Monday effectively barred Catalonia’s regional president from his office for refusing to remove a banner that called for the release of imprisoned separatist leaders and was displayed on a public building ahead of the 2019 general election. The ruling that Quim Torra disobeyed Spain’s elec- toral law triggers a new period of political uncertainty in the northeastern region where a demand by some for independence has triggered the country’s biggest constitutional crisis in decades. According to the existing regulations, Torra’s deputy should take over as president- in-charge until the regional parliament elects a new leader or a new election is held. Pro- secession activists reacted by calling for protests later Monday in the regional capital, Barcelona. In their ruling, the panel of judges unanimously agreed to uphold last year’s decision by a lower court to ban Torra from holding any public office for 18 months and fine him 30,000 euros (USD 35,000). Torra, a staunch separatist who became the head of Catalonia’s government following the 2017 push for the region’s independence from Spain, had previously criticised the case as an act of repression against the democratic mandate of voters in the region. His predecessor, Carles Puigdemont, who fled to Belgium after the Spanish government deposed him for push- ing ahead with an independence declaration, criticised the court’s decision.
