Court reopens probe into police action at 2011 march
Over 100 people filed complaints following police charge in Plaza de Catalunya
The provincial court of Barcelona has reopened an investigation into the way Catalan police cleared Plaza de Catalunya in the city during a protest by the social movement of the "indignants" on May 27, 2011.
The investigating judge had closed the case after finding that law enforcement officers had acted with "reasonably proportional" force, since most of the truncheon blows were to "hands, arms, buttocks and legs."
Over 100 people filed complaints following the police charge that day, forcing the director general of the Catalan police and the former security commissioner to testify in court.
