Pablo Rivadulla Duró (born 1988),[1] known artistically as Pablo Hasél, is a Spanish rapper. He has been convicted for praising banned groups[2] and insulting the monarchy,[3] prompting a debate on freedom of speech in Spain.[4][5]
Biography
Born in Lleida, Hasél's father Ignacio was the president of UE Lleida football club.[6] Hasél took his artistic name from a revolutionary character in an Arabic short story.[7]
In October 2011, Hasél was arrested and bailed for a song titled "Democracia su Puta Madre" in which he praised "Camarada Arenas", a convicted member of the GRAPO.[8] In April 2014, he was given a two-year prison sentence for ten songs in praise of GRAPO, ETA, Al Qaeda, the Red Army Faction and Terra Lliure.[2] This sentence was suspended for three years in September 2019, on condition that he not reoffend.[9]
In May 2014, Hasél was arrested again for being part of a group that attacked another which it believed to be linked to the far-right Platform for Catalonia.[10]
In June 2016, Hasél pushed and sprayed washing-up liquid at a TV3 journalist. He received six months in prison and a fine of €12,150 in June 2020.[11] In the same month, he received a 21⁄2-year sentence and €2,500 fine for another assault and obstruction of justice, namely the beating of a witness in the October 2017 trial of a policeman who was eventually acquitted of assaulting a minor.[12]
In March 2018, Hasél was sentenced to two years in prison for praising terrorism and insulting King Juan Carlos I on Twitter.[3] In early 2021, he was ordered to voluntarily enter prison to serve a nine month sentence for this conviction. He publicly refused this order[13] and was eventually arrested after barricading himself in the University of Lleida.[14] Hasél's freedom was supported by Amnesty International and a letter signed by 300 Spanish artists including Pedro Almodóvar and Javier Bardem.[15]
