Ousted Catalan Leader Left for Brussels

Ivan Alvarado / Reuters

Ousted Catalan leader Carles Puigdemont has left Spain and travelled to Brussels, Spanish government officials have said, independent.co.uk reports.

Mr Puigdemont is facing sedition charges from the Spanish government after Catalonia declared independence under his leadership.

The move comes after Belgium's asylum and migration affairs minister Theo Francken said the former president could seek asylum in the country.

The Spanish media reports that the former leader is accompanied by an unspecified number of other members of the Catalan government.
