The 19 people arrested for the incidents that took place on Sunday in Vitoria-Gasteiz have been released on Sunday night to Monday as a result of clashes between participants in a rally in Falange Española and participants in a counter-demonstration to prevent the event.

According to Department of Safety and Security sources, one of the detainees was a minor and was released on Sunday shortly after his arrest.

The detainees were charged with a crime of public disorder for throwing stones and various materials at the officers of the security apparatus, all of whom were involved in counter-terrorism against Falange Española.

The riots broke out on Sunday at noon, when members of the Spanish Falange concentrated in support of the unity of Spain in the vicinity of the Plaza de la Provincia, where 20 Ertzainas were slightly injured.

The riots continued on several streets in central Vitoria-Gasteiz, where members of the anti-Falange group burned several city containers and caused extensive material damage (damage to vehicles, overturning containers, breaking cobblestones, raising archets, etc.).
