Court challenge to ban on bullfighting in Catalonia

Source: AP - Fri 29th Oct 2010

Recent legislation banning bullfighting in a region of Spain was challenged by a major political party in court on Thursday.

Pio Garcia-Escudero, spokesman for Spain's Popular Party, said the appeal to the constitutional Court argues that legislators in the powerful northeastern region of Catalonia violated several articles of the Constitution. They include the right to attend cultural events, artistic liberty and rights of bullfighting businesses in the area, he said.

Catalonia's parliament banned bullfighting in July because of its alleged cruelty to animals. The ban takes effect in 2012.
