Belgium 'to study' Spain's EU warrant for Catalan leader: prosecutor

Brussels will "study" a EU arrest warrant issued by Spain for Catalonia's deposed leader, who is currently in Belgium, a spokesman for the country's state prosecutor told AFP. 

"We're going to study it and then give it to a judge," Eric Van der Sijpt said. 

A Spanish judge issued a warrant for deposed Catalan president Carles Puigdemont on Friday after he failed to attend a court summons over his role in his region's push to split from Spain.
