The reporting of ASP, speaks of “offense to Spain, its symbols, and thus the entire democratic society” in the sketch of humour that has raised a lot of controversy and by which the humorist, and the program in which it was issued, The intermediate of The Sixth, have apologized. The complaint refers to an alleged crime against State Institutions.
According to remember ASP in your comunciado, last day October 31 Daniel Mateo Patau, in the program The Intermediate of The Sixth, while I was reading the package leaflet of a medicine anti-flu, sneezed and it sounded like the nose with the flag of Spain. “The facts described were made at a time of maximum public hearing,” says the police union.
The article 543 of the Penal Code, included in chapter IV , establishes, on the basis of the ASP, which “offenses or outrages by word, by writing, or in fact to Spain, its Autonomous Communities or the symbols or emblems,made with advertising, is punished with the penalty of a fine of seven to twelve months”. In his complaint, ASP adds that “the article 510 of the Spanish Penal Code punishes the crimes of hate with the penalty of imprisonment of one to four years and, in addition, with the penalty of a fine of 6 to 12 months.”
“From ASP we understand the freedom of expression and the difficulty that poses for a humorist to make you laugh day in day out to your audience, but we believe that this should not be an alibi to attack the flag of Spain, and what it symbolises, or should symbolise for all spaniards,” said the union: “we See unacceptable to attack the symbols that represent the values and democratic principles of our society. The flag work represents the rights and freedoms of the citizenry. We call for justice and respect.”
