Puigdemont, 54, dismissed by the central government on Friday

Catalonia's axed separatist leader Carles Puigdemont was in Brussels on Monday, not in his home region as previously thought, a Spanish government source told AFP.

Puigdemont, 54, dismissed by the central government on Friday, "is in Brussels," the source said. The Catalan daily La Vanguardia reported that he was accompanied by others from his former administration.
