Spain's Supreme Court rejects request to arrest Catalan ex-president

Spain's Supreme Court rejected a request by prosecutors to reactivate an arrest warrant for deposed Catalan president Carles Puigdemont in Denmark on Monday.


Puigdemont, who fled from Spain to Belgium after Madrid officials dissolved Catalonia's autonomy and issued arrest warrants for its former ministers last year, is facing charges of rebellion, sedition and embezzlement if he returns to his country.
