National High Court Releases Donostian Prisoner Ander Mujika
- On Tuesday afternoon, the National High Court acquitted Donostia prisoner Ander Mujika after he was sent to Spain by France on Monday. He has been in prison for more than thirteen years.
On Tuesday afternoon, Donostia Ander Mujika was released after being sentenced in full by the Spanish National Court to eight years in prison. France handed him over last Monday to Spain, where he is already in hospital.
Mujika, who was arrested in Cahors in 2007, is charged with ETA membership and firearms depot. The defendant, who was tried in Paris, has served the penalty in prisons of Saint-Martin-de-Re and Mont-de-Marsan, among others.
In 2017, Mujika's parents, his brother and his 5-year-old nephew suffered a traffic accident in front of Bordeaux when they were visiting Saint-Martin-d-R prison. In 2018, however, France, together with the prisoner Fermín Martínez Bergara, ordered Mujika to approach a prison closer to Euskal Herria, specifically Mont-de-Marsangora, 160 kilometers from Euskal Herria.
On April 10, a rally was held in the Donostia district of Gros to reclaim his move to the Mujika district and denounce his situation.
Iratxeren Bidasoaldeko Lagunak ekimenak deituta, dozenaka lagun kalera atera ziren atzo Iratxe Sorzabal preso politiko irundarraren absoluzioa eskatzeko eta behingoz etxera ekartzeko, torturak salatzeaz gain.
Sare Herritarrak antolatuta, pasa den urtarrilaren 11n Bilboko kaleak bete zituen manifestazio jendetsuaren ondoren, berriz sortu da eztabaida, euskal presoei salbuespen legeriarik aplikatzen ote zaion. Gure iritzia azaltzen saiatuko gara.
