Catalan President blasts Madrid for 'illegal' referendum raids

``The country's Constitutional Court suspended the vote on September 6, after the central government argued that Spain's 1978 constitution declares that the country is indivisible, Reuters reported. National authorities have stepped up their efforts to halt the vote in recent days. Officers from Spain's national police force, the Guardia Civil, arrested Catalonia's junior economic minister, Josep Maria Jove, along with eight other officials.''
