SARE announced on 17 September the suspension of the march called for on Saturday in Arrasate (Gipuzkoa), following a demonstration. - No to life imprisonment! The motto of the mobilization was "Human Law, coexistence, solution" and it was a mobilization to ask for the return home of prisoners, exiled and deported: They had prepared a journey of 31 kilometres to demand an end to the emergency situation of the Basque prisoner Unai Parot. Although the National Audience allowed the march, VOX and pp were against it. The Sare citizen network rejected the mobilization "not to give the opportunity to the people who want the confrontation".

Instead of the demonstration, concentrations were held on Saturday at different points in the Basque Country. In Arrasate they have met in the town square with the motto “Facing fascism, organization and struggle”.VOX and pp, for their part, have wanted to show their total opposition and have carried out parallel concentrations in the people. Convened by the Voices against Terrorism Association, the plaza welcomed the members of VOX Santiago Abascal, Javier Ortega Smith and Macarena Olona, as well as several victims of terrorism.

Tension has intensified between the two sides, and while the anti-fascists were heading to the buses to reach Arrasate, the Ertzaintza has lifted charges. An elderly man has suffered a head injury and has had to be taken to the hospital with a reserved prognosis, according to News de Gipuzkoa.
