18-Dec-17 TV News: 'Candidates campaign from behind bars'

With only three days left before the Catalan election, the campaign is coming to an end. And today, once again, the main story came from an unlikely place: a prison in the Madrid region. The deposed vice president Oriol Junqueras managed to give a radio interview — despite being jailed. The Spanish government opened an inquiry on him and Jordi Sánchez, who also managed to participate in Together for Catalonia rallies from behind bars. Sánchez’s colleague said that they are not allowed to communicate with their families anymore. But what is prison like for Catalan leaders? We will hear a minister who spent a month in jail share her experience. We will also learn about an initiative that raised more than 7 million euros to fight against infectious diseases — in a single day.
