Here's the provisional calendar of witnesses summonsed to the Supreme Court in Madrid for week four of the Catalan independence trial. They range from more politicians (such as Catalan parliamentary speaker Roger Torrent, who couldn't testify last week when originally called) to senior civil servants, computer specialists and postal workers.
Also to testify are the former delegate of the Spanish government in Catalonia, Enric Millo; former Catalan vice president, Neus Munté; and those responsible for the Spanish security forces during the 1st October referendum, such as Diego Pérez de los Cobos and Mossos d'Esquadra leaders. The owners of Catalan hotels where Spanish police officers were accommodated in 2017 will also appear.
[NOTE: Due to testimonies that took longer than the time that the court allowed, this provisional calendar has in practice been subject to considerable alterations]
