Spanish Constitutional Court to rule on amnesty doctrine

The Spanish Constitutional Court is expected to establish the legal doctrine required for the Supreme Court to apply amnesty to embezzlement charges related to the Catalan independence movement. The court's 12 magistrates will review two specific resolution proposals concerning Jordi Turull and Dolors Bassa.

A favorable ruling would lift the political disqualifications for several leaders, including Turull, Bassa, Oriol Junqueras, and Raül Romeva. Furthermore, the decision could result in the lifting of national arrest warrants for former Catalan President Carles Puigdemont and others currently in exile, such as Toni Comín and Lluís Puig, potentially allowing them to return to Spain without fear of detention.
