Man sentenced over homophobic insults

A Barcelona judge has sentenced a man for shouting homophobic insults in the street. In the sentence, the defendant was found guilty of a crime against the victim’s fundamental rights and sentenced to six months in prison, a fine of €720 and compensation of €600 for moral damages. The sentence acquitted the defendant of the further offence of injury with the aggravation of discrimination due to sexual orientation, as a physical attack on the victim could not be proven.
