The Provincial Court sets the date for the trial against Le Senne

PalmaThe Provincial Court of the Balearic Islands has set a date for the preliminary hearing of the oral trial against the President of the Parliament, Gabriel Le Senne. It will take place on October 28. This was reported by the association Memòria de Mallorca, which is part of the private prosecution. The leader of the Chamber faces charges for an alleged hate crime, for having torn up a photograph of Aurora Picornell and les Roges del Molinar during the plenary session of the Parliament.

The events occurred in June 2024. During a debate on the law of democratic memory of the Balearic Islands, Le Senne, who is the provincial leader of Vox, lost his temper in a dialectical exchange with members of the PSIB's Board and tore up a poster with photographs of the victims of the dictatorship that they had on their table as a sign of protest against the will of the PP and Vox to repeal the law (as eventually happened in early 2026). The President of the Chamber reacted furiously when, after asking the socialists to remove the posters, they refused. When he had torn up the photographs, he expelled them from the hemicycle.

The summons from Court of Instruction number 1 of Palma comes as a result of the criminal complaint filed by the association Memòria de Mallorca, along with the families of Aurora Picornell and Antònia and Maria Pascual, on the one hand, and the lawsuit filed by the collective Estimada Aurora on the other.
