The exiled Catalan leader Carles Puigdemont has had his detention extended after appearing before a German court.
Puigdemont will remain in custody pending a decision on whether he will be sent back to Spain on sedition and rebellion charges. It's the start of extradition proceedings that could take months.
"He appeared calm and composed," said Schleswig city prosecutor Georg-Freidrich Guentge when asked outside the court to describe Puigdemont's appearance.
Catalonia's former leader was arrested on a European warrant on Sunday while crossing into the country from Denmark.
