Separatist demonstrators gathered outside a Barcelona courthouse on September 27, mirroring an earlier protest after which jail terms were recommended for 11 participants.

In February protesters from CDR Catalunya, an alliance dedicated to independence for Catalonia, chained themselves to gates at the Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Catalunya.

In a statement posted on Twitter, the group rejected the proposed jail terms and said its members had taken part in a non-violent protest.

They also said they wanted to mark the anniversary of the shooting of anti-Franco activists on September 27, 1975. Credit: @CDRCatOficial via Storyful
