What are the immediate implications of the Prosecutor's request for amnesty for the police officers involved in the Roger Español case?

The Spanish Prosecutor's Office has requested amnesty for four national police officers accused of causing Roger Español's eye injury with a rubber bullet during the October 1st, 2017 referendum protests, and also for Español himself, who is charged with throwing a barrier at officers. This request, despite legal exclusions for actions causing organ loss, asserts the officers acted without malicious intent.
