The European Parliament (EP) has voted to strip immunity from the former president of Spain’s Catalonia region, Carles Puigdemont, and two of his associates - a move that could pave the way for the political figures to be extradited.

The politicians fled abroad in 2017, following an independence referendum - and the subsequent declaration of independence - which the Spanish government deemed illegal.
