Puigdemont's €75,000 bail fee has been met and the former Catalan leader is free to leave custody in Germany. He could still be extradited to Spain on charges of misusing state funds.
Catalan separatist and the former head of the regional government Carles Puigdemont paid bail on Friday, allowing him to walk out of jail after he was arrested last month on a European warrant.
After walking out of jail, Puigdemont called for the release of so-called political prisoners in Spain, notably those who were arrested for their involvement in the Catalan independence referendum. He urged the Spanish government to start a dialogue with Catalonia's political leaders.
In a blow to Spanish authorities, a German court on Wednesday refused to extradite him on charges of high treason , the closest German legal equivalent to Spain's most serious charge of rebellion.

Good for him. Happy for him. The just shall always be vindicated. People in positions of power who use their power to oppress people and abuse their rights should always be ready to cover their faces in shame because they will always be shamed.
