In addition, the former counselor has accused the Mossos d’Esquadra of cowardice on Monday after the unfortunate number of her arrest. Ponsat has replied to some statements to Catalunya Rdio by the chief commissioner of the Mossos d’Esquadra, Eduard Sallent, who has remarked that the judges determined that Ponsat’s detention had been absolutely legal.
Hiding behind an illegal arrest warrant does not make your actions legal or excuse your cowardice, Ponsat stated, addressing the Mossos. And he has added: It’s unfortunate the little act that you organized in front of the journalists, with no other need than to show your master that you are obedient..
Ponsat, former adviser to the Government of Carles Puigdemont who fled after the unilateral declaration of independence in 2017 to avoid being prosecuted by 1-O, crossed the Franco-Spanish border by surprise on March 28 to return to Catalonia, without turning yourself in to the authorities despite his arrest warrant.
After giving a press conference, she was arrested by the Mossos d’Esquadra in the middle of the street and taken before the judge on duty in Barcelona, who released her after the Supreme Court investigating magistrate, Pablo Llarena, so agreed.
