Antonio Tejero, the 1981 coup leader who famously stormed the Spanish parliament with a pistol, has died. His actions inadvertently strengthened Spanish democracy.

Spanish parliamentary groups are requesting the declassification of various historical documents beyond the 23-F coup attempt, with Junts demanding clarity on the 17-A attacks and PNV and Bildu seeking information on Mikel Zabalza's case.

The Spanish lower house will consider repealing the prior unconstitutionality appeal against Statutes of Autonomy, potentially curtailing the Constitutional Court's powers.
