BARCELONA, Aug 31 — A UN committee has found that Spain violated the political rights of four former Catalan separatist leaders by suspending them from public duties prior to their convictions over the region’s 2017 bid for independence, it said today.

It said the violent rebellion accusation was “not foreseeable” given they had urged their followers to protest peacefully. The committee’s decision contradicts Spain’s Constitutional Court which in 2020 backed a 2018 Supreme Court ruling to provisionally suspend the politicians as regional lawmakers pending their conviction.
