After the serious incidents of the Madrid derby, in OKDIARIO we were able to chat with Alfredo Perdiguero, sub-inspector of National Police and spokesperson for Police union alternative, to address the problem of the rain of lighters he received Courteous by ultras from Atlético de Madrid. Simeone and Koke justified the reaction of the violent, and the red and white club has only located one of the individuals so far. What happened, what action should be taken, and how to fix the problem?
A very serious problem occurred in the Metropolitan with ultras throwing lighters at Courteous. “It’s been 20 years since we’ve seen such violent images. With people so upset, people bundled up, people masked and people hooded. “We cannot allow there to be masked people in a football stadium and what’s more, they are the ones who go down to talk to the captains or security,” he began by declaring. Alfredo Perdiguero.
Alfredo Perdiguero He also believes that the Argentine coach must be sanctioned for his statements: “These messages justifying violence cannot be authorized. And obviously, just like Atlético Madrid must be sanctioned, Cholo Simeone must be sanctioned. A violent act cannot be encouraged, encouraged, supported or justified. But we cannot say that this is what the other did, that the other cannot do, that the other cannot justify when we tell him at length, as we have seen in all the images: “Courteous, die”. What happens if they tell you “Simeone, die”. You give them kisses and stroke their ears. Obviously, those who have to put out the fire are them, the players and the coaches. And whoever throws fuel on the fire, encourages the violent or supports the violent, is just as violent as the one who commits the act of violence. That’s why I say it can’t be justified here. The same should be sanctioned against Atlético or the Fund or whoever corresponds. “This man must be punished because it is certainly unjustifiable to support ten or a hundred people who have been violent.”
“Colleagues who were outside the stadium saw how many parents and their children left because of what was happening and something they didn’t want to see. They are violent people. There are not only 3, 30 or 300. I do not know the number, but all those who make up this group, who cover themselves, cover themselves and justify themselves among themselves,” estimated the sub-inspector of National Police.
Atlético de Madrid must take action
“I don’t know if they’re afraid, I don’t know if they justify it, I don’t know if they want support, I don’t know if they subsidize, I have no idea. But just like Real Madrid and Barcelona. Like many other clubs in Spain. Remove their violent behaviors or retrain them into what they are today, hobbies and younger artists. I don’t know why Atlético Madrid doesn’t do it. In addition, when the football ends, they go there to celebrate with this audience, to celebrate the draw against Real Madrid. “I think it was not a normal gesture,” he said. Retriever In OKDIARIO.
Alfredo Perdiguero He also explained the police operation of the derby and what happened before and during the match being stopped: “The citizen security operation is set up outside the stadium. There were around 400 police officers, including members of the UIP, UPR, underground and security. Around 400 police officers were responsible for this operation, guaranteeing calm throughout the metropolitan area. Inside the pitch, security is the responsibility of Atlético de Madrid. The head of police security went to talk to these people and gave them ten minutes. He first sent to speak to the captains and the coach. He told them that if they didn’t talk to them in ten minutes and calm down, he would evacuate the stands and empty the stands. What problem was there? That it was too late. It was very late and there were children. “Obviously, this could create greater social concern or damage than was intended to be avoided.”
“What Atlético Madrid did, which is to collaborate with the police, is not worth it. It is not possible that they only identified one when there were, as I counted, four masked people, their faces completely covered, one white and red, another a flag, another a hood and another with his face half covered. And that the rest of the fans weren’t able to tell him to get off, cover up, or stop covering up. I will condemn all acts of violence, wherever they come from. But of course, Atlético takes a long time to break this link with these people, just like Real Madrid, its great rival, or Barcelona did,” he said. Retriever In OKDIARIO.
“They cannot allow us to give Europe, not just Spain, this image of acts of violence, of Nazi banners, of masked people on a football field. In other words, we are not in a banana state, we are not in a banana country. It is a city, Madrid, that is at the helm of many international stages and yet these acts of violence are allowed to happen in football. Even one of those he expelled had a knife. Well, these are things that we don’t understand, that we don’t understand and of course, from the police point of view, we are not going to allow it,” he said. Retriever to this newspaper.
Steps to put an end to acts of violence
“I am clear that when you impose a financial fine, people get very angry. So this could be a solution. Another way: a violent act, a racist act or a xenophobic act, so he gets a year in prison for example. He won’t go to prison, but he will realize it and if he does it again, he will go to prison. Make something documentary. This DNI or this card which can be issued to any person in which you have entry or pass, and obviously it is personal, non-transferable, like the DNI and cannot be left with anyone. You now have three possible alternatives so that our legislators, these thinking heads who know how to think, even if they think sometimes, can do something, something good for society,” he concluded. Alfredo Perdiguero by specifying the possible measures that can be taken against the violent so that acts like that of the Metropolitano last Sunday do not happen again.
