Kyle Biedermann told his supporters that he plans to submit a bill that would enable a referendum on secession, the Ksat portal reported.

Pro-independence protesters obstructed major roads and a high-speed railway line in Spain's Catalonia region on Monday, one year after a banned referendum on secession marred by police violence.

Catalonia’s secessionist parties have won enough votes to regain a slim majority in the regional parliament and give new momentum to their political struggle for independence from Spain.

Catalan leader Carles Puigdemont kept friends and foes guessing on Wednesday on whether he intends to unilaterally declare independence as the Spanish government prepares to impose direct rule to stop the region breaking away, Reuters reports.

The Government of Spain stated that on Saturday it will begin the procedure for invoking Article 155 of its Constitution, which will suspend the autonomous status of Catalonia.
