CATALONIAN politicians called on the European Parliament yesterday to investigate allegations made by a former police chief that the Spanish National Intelligence Service had a hand in the 2017 terrorist attacks in Barcelona and Cambrils.
Sixteen people were killed in the terrorist attacks on August 17, 2017, when a man ploughed a van into pedestrians walking along Barcelona’s La Rambla, and five other men did the same in Cambrils. All the attackers were eventually killed by the police.
Spain's then prime minister Mariano Rajoy blamed the attacks on Isis.
