On November 2, Bassa was sent to prison in Madrid, where she shared a cell with her parliamentary colleague Meritxell Borràs.

While behind bars, she "started helping some of the convicts to work towards getting a diploma or school certificate".

She also obeyed orders to clean the halls while Borràs cleaned windows.

She said that some prison workers were surprised at their willingness to work: "They thought that we would act ‘high and mighty’ and they saw that it wasn't the case."

On November 11, her sister, Montserrat, appeared before a crowd in Torroella de Montgrí and issued a dramatic plea for Bassa's release.

In early December, the Spanish Supreme Court ordered Bassa's release and that of four other Catalan parliamentarians, Jordi Turull, Josep Rull, Carles Mundó and Raül Romeva, upon payment of 100,000 euros in bail apiece.
