The union majority of the Basque Country gathered in the Plaza Rotonda in Bilbao. They denounce that Obispo Telleria is in prison despite being suffering from an incurable disease, and they demand the fulfillment of the third degree in the context of the Obispo SOS dynamic that Sara has launched. The political prisoner, who is currently 68 years old, is serving his sentence in Zaballa prison (Álava) because, although he should have been in second grade, in third grade, the disease should have allowed him to do so, the unions denounce.
Obispo Telleria was extradited from Mexico to Spain in 2017 and sentenced to 26 years in prison for his role in the 1981 murder of a Spanish police officer.Two years after he entered the prison, the first symptoms were detected and the unions denounced that since then his state of health has deteriorated. Tellerian genetic disease can lead to degenerative diseases such as frontotemporal dementia or ALS.
The unions present the rally as a follow-up to the campaign launched by Sara in 2019: "To denounce the policies of exception and to encourage steps towards solutions, peace and coexistence." For this reason, it has been proclaimed that it is "urgent" to put an end to "emergency policies" and that it is "essential" that prisoners with serious illnesses "can get out of prison."
