Batasuna in Donostia

Batasuna leaders (L-R front) Marije Fullaondo, Joseba Permach and Pernando Barrena address the media at a press conference in San Sebastian March 30, 2006. Spain's High Court granted bail to the leader of an outlawed Basque separatist party on Wednesday after unexpected support from the public prosecutor, one week after ETA declared a ceasefire. Arnaldo Otegi, a key figure in any possible peace process, had been expected to be sent to jail, pending trial, for belonging to a terrorist group. His party, Batasuna, has been outlawed due to its links to guerrilla group ETA. The banner reads in Basque language, 'Respect the decision of the Basque people. Now the country, now the peace'.
