Answer

How are extremist symbols or Nazi salutes treated in Spain and Mallorca?

Using banned extremist symbols or gestures can trigger criminal investigations in Spain, including in Mallorca. These cases are treated seriously because they can fall under laws against unconstitutional or extremist propaganda. If the incident happens in public, it may also be dealt with alongside other offences such as disorderly conduct or assault.
