expect the catalyst to just go on and so who wants to own this i have to say that it's been a very discrete type police operation here we've seen. it was. possible it was responding to these protesters but it looks very much as it. should go to you barbara in brussels we just heard that the other cattle on lawmakers are showing up in madrid for the hearing why won't push them on join them he might in fact terry be scared of a thirty year jail sentence some of his former supporters say he's a coward because he's not going to face the music now and the belgium a minister said pointedly now at times like these you should be close to your people however really had the real reason might be that he still hopes and thinks

he's playing a political role here he opened a website that called him president in exile in. in europe so and he's also of course still trying to garner support from the european union or some countries in europe for his cause so far they've really poured cold water on that but he somehow keeps up the fiction of governing from far that's what he said in his press conference on monday here in brussels it's fictitious but he still tries to cling to his office and much of the lawmakers are facing pretty tough charges including sedition what all is at stake in these hearings could the deputy's former deputies end up in jail. well given the seriousness of the challenges the judges troops indeed ordered them to be taken away from the proceedings to the nearest jail which is about thirty kilometers and. the other

has taken on a combative lawyer to defend him however still experts here think all this could be done within a relatively short time officially has two months sixty days to sort of extradite him after they are peen arrest warrant however there's another aspect to this politically this whole thing is poisonous for the belgian government because it's containing the flame their ship of separatist movement form a separatist movement and so the fires could still start burning here in brussels over the extradition off to college but you know and barbara basler in brussels and martin roberts in madrid thanks to you both. sports now an exciting and to the professional baseball season in the u.s. the houston astros took down the l.a. dodgers five one on wednesday night to close out the world series four games to
