VOICED : Imputan a presidente catalan por consulta independentista

Artur Mas, the president of Catalonia, is charged by the Spanish Prosecutor's Office with disobedience, malfeasance, embezzlement, and usurpation of functions related to a symbolic independence vote in 2014. He is set to testify on October 15. If convicted, he could be barred from public office. This development follows a regional election where secessionist parties gained a parliamentary majority, viewing it as a mandate to pursue independence, despite not securing over 50% of the vote. They aim to establish an independent republic by 2017.
