Basque prisoners Irantzu Gallastegi and Gregorio Antolín travel to Euskal Herria

  • Asier Borrero is the only prisoner missing for the Basque Country. Its rapprochement is announced and Sare therefore put an end to the policy of dispersion. Garikoitz Etxeberria approached Zaballa prison and is on hunger strike and Faustino Marcos was released before Euskal Herria.

Basque prisoners Irantzu Gallastegi and Gregorio Eskuero have been repatriated by Euskal Herria. Brunette Gallastegui has been transferred from Estrema prison to Zaballa, and Oriotarra Escudero from Dueñas to Martutene.

Sarek and Etxerat ended the policy of dispersion following the announcement by the Government of Spain of the Basque Repatriation of five prisoners, including Gallastegi and Eskuero.

Lizartza Garikoitz Etxeberria has already approached Zaballa prison and has been on hunger strike since Friday for refusing to share a cell. Donostiarra Faustino Marcos, for his part, was released before entering the Basque Country, serving the entire sentence. Algortarra Asier Borrero is still a imprisoned prisoner in Spain.

On Sunday Etxerat appeared in Bilbao to ask for the "definitive" disappearance of the emergency laws.
