27-Apr-18 TV News: '6 months and counting of direct rule in Catalonia'

Deposed vice-president Oriol Junqueras argues that being held so far from his relatives can negatively affect not only him but also his children, and his defense.

We’ll also speak to a lawyer to go more in depth in the Manada case judicial verdict, which has sparked outrage for many people.
