A group of customers and the owner of the S’Ànnera Xafardera bar have filed cross-complaints over events that occurred on Friday afternoon at the establishment, which include accusations of insults, linguistic discrimination, attempts to leave without paying, and police intervention.

Plataforma per la Lengua has reported up to five known cases of linguistic discrimination in the Balearic Islands between December 2015 and February of this year, specifically for speaking Catalan in commercial establishments and customer service areas. The organization is calling on the government to enact a specific law guaranteeing consumers' right to be served in their own language and establishing penalties for violations.

A customer was attacked for speaking Catalan at Hipermueble, a well-known furniture store. According to the victim, the store manager violently asked her to leave the establishment for speaking to store managers in Catalan. "The manager expelled me from his business after refusing to switch to Spanish when I was the customer," Julia explained in a social media post.
