A court spokesman said prosecutors have issued an arrest warrant and asked Swiss authorities to extradite Gabriel.
Gabriel, a high-level member of the Catalan leftist CUP party, was summoned to court on charges of sedition and rebellion for her part in Catalonia’s illegal independence referendum. On Tuesday, Gabriel said she had decided to move from Spain to Switzerland and will return home when the charges are dropped.
