Gabriel Le Senne, the president of the Balearic Parliament representing Vox, is set to face trial on charges of hate crime following a decision by the Audiencia de Palma. The court has dismissed Le Senne's appeal against his prosecution for tearing a photograph depicting republican women executed in 1937 during a parliamentary session.

The tribunal rejected Le Senne's appeal presented in February, which contested his indictment by Juan Manuel Sobrino, the judge of the first instruction court in Palma. This decision to proceed with the trial was made despite the objections from the Prosecution, which opposed the judge's ruling.

Le Senne contended in his appeal that the judge's decision was "illogical and arbitrary," arguing that it was based on a "biased and partial interpretation of the proceedings carried out," which had not gathered sufficient evidence to warrant a trial over what he described as accidental actions.

The incident occurred on June 18 of the previous year during a parliamentary debate concerning the repeal of the Balearic Democratic Memory Law. Mercedes Garrido, the second vice president of the Chamber, displayed a photograph on her laptop cover that showed several republican women persecuted during the Franco regime. Le Senne demanded its removal to ensure the "neutrality" of the Parliament, but Garrido refused. In response, Le Senne forcibly removed the photograph from her seat, leading to her expulsion alongside her colleague, the second secretary of the table, socialist deputy Pilar Costa.
