The entities CDR Catalunya, Disobediencia Civil, Plataformas Antirrepresivas de Barcelona y Ponent, and the sector of people represented by the ANC have called for several marches to Barcelona to commemorate the sixth anniversary of the unilateral referendum of 1-O.
The mobilizations, which were presented this Wednesday at a press conference at the Model in Barcelona, will leave on foot from Badalona, Montcada i Reixac and Sant Feliu de Llobregat, while a motorcycle caravan will leave from Sitges and from Sant Cugat del Vallès , a slow march with vehicles, all of them heading to the old Model prison in Barcelona.
Once the marches reach the Model, a popular meal and a political event will be held, in which the Consell de la República will participate, a para-institutional body led from Belgium by Carles Puigdemont, Òmnium Cultural and the ANC's sector of reprisals.
A demonstration will start from the Modelo which will converge in the Jardinets de Gràcia with the one called by the Council of the Republic, and which will continue to the Civil Guard barracks in Travessera de Gràcia.
At the press conference, the activist Jordi Pesarrodona recalled the anniversary of the police searches in several departments in 2017, which were held on September 20, and highlighted the importance of the CDR in carrying out the referendum on September 1 -EITHER. Pesarrodona has called for participation in these demonstrations to "recover strength in the streets" and "counteract" the repression.
At the press conference, lawyer César Lagonigro pointed out that the amnesty "is not the solution to anything", since it will be the judges who will end up applying it, and he warned that it could serve to "whitewash" the State if it causes appeals in European courts decline. He has also rejected it Pesarrodona, who has asked why this amnesty should be requested, and that, in any case, it should be "a total amnesty."
