The ERC deputy in Congress, Francesc Marc Álvaro, put on a tie with the Barça colours and took out an Estelada flag in the Interior commission to denounce the actions of the national police in Elche, where a minor was subjected to police aggression for carrying this flag. In this commission, the Minister of the Interior, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, is appearing regarding the crisis in Ceuta, and Marc Álvaro took the opportunity to denounce the attack on the fan boy during the build-up to the Barça match.

"Do you think this flag [the estelada] is a weapon of mass destruction or a prohibited item that must be seized?", the deputy and journalist asked Marlaska. Marc Álvaro has demanded explanations from the Interior Ministry, claiming that if we are talking about a democratic state, these types of actions should be inadmissible.
