On the night of March 8th, the feminist group "Xarxa de les Bruixes" went about the town of Berga, lighting fires and spraying purple paint on various churches. Besides this, they also chanted anti-clerical slogans and even sprayed the word "guilty" on a religious images store which was particularly offensive.
