After the 9-Nov vote, the Catalan Public Prosecutor is under the pressure of the Spanish government and the State Prosecutor to take legal action against the president of the Catalan government, Artur Mas, his vicepresident, Joana Ortega and the minister of Education, Irene Rigaud, for alleged prevarication and misappropriation of functions, disobedience and obstruction of duty. Their crime is to have made it possible for more than two million European citizens to express their opinion about Catalonia’s political future as a people in a public poll on November 9th, in accordance with basic rights of all people and peoples enshrined in the The Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Convenant on Civil and Political Rights.
