The Barcelona provincial prosecutor’s office has agreed to process a complaint against Pilar Rahola on charges of incitement to hatred and complicity in genocide related to the Gaza war.

The legal action was brought by two activists from the Socialist Youth Organisation (OJS) of Catalonia.

The activists were already known to Rahola. They threw red paint over her during a lecture organised by the Fundació Martí l'Humà in La Garriga in October 2024. The pair faced their own charges over that incident.
