Rapper condemned in Spain because "freedom of expression is limited in Spain"

Valtonyc, Josep Miquel Arenas Beltran, was sentenced to 3 years and a half in jail as well as a fine of € 3,000 by the Spanish Inquisition. The rapper said he was only a poet and that his lyrics are metaphors. But the Spanish court said "freedom of expression is limited in Spain". Valtonyc answered that"only the poor go to jail" in reference with more than 700 politicians of the ruling Popular Party condemned or investigated by corruption as well as Iñaki Urdangarin y Liebaert, the brother-in-law of King Philip VI. Urdangarin was convicted of embezzling about 6 million euros in public funds for sporting events since 2004 through his nonprofit foundation, the so-called Nóos case, and of political corruption by using his former courtesy title of Duke of Palma de Mallorca as the husband of the Infanta Cristina, daughter of King Juan Carlos. But Urdangarin has never been in jail.

Valtonyc says he will have his appeal heard by the Spanish supreme court but little is expected as Spanish "justice" is clearly a drama of injustice.
