This Sunday Nacional won by a score of three goals to one to Peñarol and stayed with the National Classic. However, aside from the sporting event, the violent events that took place inside and outside the Great Central Park also made headlines, which led to the actions of two Prosecutors’ Offices to investigate said incidents.
On the one hand, after the meeting, the complaint for damages to almost 20 bus units that were stationed at the site emerged. The 8th Shift Flagrancia Prosecutor, Leonardo Morales, was appointed to carry out the investigation for the alleged damages caused against 17 transport units.
According to the Director of Communication of the Attorney General’s Office, Javier Benech, the authorities have not arrested any people for these events yet. However, Morales requested that a survey of the video surveillance cameras in the area be carried out, in order to identify those involved.
Romano will pursue the events that occurred inside the stadium
The other of the Prosecutor’s Offices that will carry out an investigation in this regard will be the one in charge of the 9th Flagrancia Prosecutor, Fernando Romano. The official from the Public Ministry, with experience in violent acts related to sports, will investigate the events that took place inside the Great Central Park.
It should be remembered that during the match there was a break of around 10 minutes due to the confrontation between fans of both teams. The television cameras recorded images where fans of the two teams could be seen throwing stones at each other and the partial “coalmen” throwing a flare at the field. In addition, there was also damage to the bathrooms of the Héctor Scarone stand, ready to receive visiting fans.
As in the case of the attacked buses, there are still no detainees for these incidents.
