German court orders Carles Puigdemont to be held in custody during extradition proceedings

A German court has ordered Catalan separatist Carles Puigdemont to be held in custody for the length of extradition proceedings, prosecutors said.
Schleswig Holstein state prosecutor Georg Guentge said the court in Neumuenster formally determined Puigdemont's identity and also heard arguments from his lawyer claiming legal flaws in Spain's extradition request.
