The “carboneros” justify the acts of vandalism and aggression to “defend the aurinegra families”. And that “institutional violence leaned in one direction.”
She also says that the prisoners are in a “hostage and blackmail” situation.and which are also incommunicable.
Finally, they ask not to attack Botafogo fans. The organizer says that this is guidance from the prisoners’ lawyers:
That’s why we want to convey tranquility and serenity around the Centenário. It is a request from the families of fans detained in Brazil who have enormous concern and anguish that today the violence has become unstoppable, violence that will worsen the procedural situation with bad legal consequences for their loved ones, as the lawyers express.
Therefore, Barra Amsterdam asks all partial aurinegros to remain calm inside and outside the Centenário stadium. To the different groups that make up the organization, to members, to non-members, to those who go alone or in groups, to fans from all sectors of the stadium.
It was demonstrated that not even bringing three organized groups together with the police achieved what they wanted, which was to seriously harm the families and take the belongings of our fans. It was demonstrated who is who, which is why this case aroused international solidarity. It demonstrated who’s who and everyone knows that Carbonero (Peñarol’s nickname) is great for its people.
