24 August 1994,
Journalist Pepe Rei was imprisoned by Carlos Bueno's judge. At that time he was head of Egin's research department. The judge accused him of collaborating with the armed group. Rei, in the National High Court itself, denied all accusations before being sent to prison, and considered the case as revenge of the PNV and the Ertzaintza for their journalistic work.
