Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

Oarsoaldeko Hitza says that six members and former members of the Yakovleg 42 group must testify on Monday as investigators in the courts, charging “hate crime”. The complaint is based on a report by the Spanish Civil Guard. The lyrics of the songs speak of “an intolerant discourse against the police, the military, religion, the businessmen and Spain” and of “permanent exaltation” of violence. If the case persists in court, the Prosecutor may require prison sentences of one to four years.

In solidarity with the group, on Monday morning the Socialist Councils of Oarsoaldea, Donostialdea and Buruntza convened a rally in front of the Donostia courts at 11:00. In the afternoon a new rally will be held at 18:30 in San Esteban Square in Oiartzun under the motto "No aggression against freedom of expression". The musicians have also received support from EH Bildu and the PNV from the Municipality of Oiartzun.

The Anti-Faxist Network has published an interview with the group in which members of the group say that the Civil Guard report shows more hatred, in the words of their songs. Because there have been no accusations against them, because it was the police that acted directly against them. They stress that they are a group that is committed to freedom and equality and that is to defend diversity. "The report of the Civil Guard mentions police, military, religion, businessmen and fascism in Spain to impose the opposite: fear, unique thinking, unique behavior... Therefore, we believe that fighting these groups is unsustainable, in the fight for freedom and equality."

In line with the case, the group has just published the song Utterance askatasuna.
