Enchanting environment in the stands and good football entertainment on the pitch, but when the derby raffled amongst AIK and Hammarby (2-2) was swept away, the saddest scenes emerged in Solna’s nationwide arena. Enthusiasts of the two rival golf equipment clashed in a violent brawl in which flaming rockets were also fired between the two sections of the grandstand.
Police have initiated preliminary investigations into two situations of violent revolt, as nicely as cases of assault and violence against an official.
A extra gross disturbance that final 12 months experienced in all probability led to critical sanctions for the organizing organization, in this case AIK, and which experienced influenced even more than the guilty get-togethers. But due to the fact the so-known as “scale of situations” criticized forward of this soccer period has been changed by the law enforcement with an exclusion method, it looks different.
– As an alternative of knocking down 3,000 grandstand seats, they are now seeking to get keep of the men and women who fully commited the crimes, suggests Mats Enquist, secretary typical of the Swedish elite soccer (Sef) club-interest corporation.
– “This is as unacceptable as it appears,” said Mats Enquist, secretary general of Sef.

It is, just like an frustrating majority both of those within just the football and enthusiast group, constructive about the new law enforcement method.
– We are very happy with the collaboration at the moment. It has been quick to get absent with it in the past, but when men and women are convicted and notice that accomplishing this in a soccer arena is not devoid of implications, this little group will probably dwindle even far more. Much more people will believe about it, and much more importantly, other supporters who have performed practically nothing require not stress, says Enquist.
With the support of surveillance cameras and movement photos from the Discovery television company, the law enforcement initiated an identification process to then prosecute those people who participated in the riot.
Following the activity he took care law enforcement 97 people today in Årstaberg in southern Stockholm, where AIK and Hammarby supporters went to struggle. These have been filmed and photographed ahead of they were taken off from the scene and police are now operating to assess people images with the video clip footage of the arena.
– We suspect that lots of of people who went to Årstaberg to battle have been also associated in the violent riot inside the arena, suggests Ola Österling, a push spokesperson at the Stockholm law enforcement.

No one particular has been arrested on suspicion of a criminal offense at this time. It is not probable to say how lengthy the investigation will consider.
– Reliable identification operate has begun. We are positive that quite a few will be called for questioning during the 7 days. For these who have been discovered and have participated in violent riots, there is jail on the scale of punishment, states Ola Österling.
Both of those Mats Enquist and Ola Österling predicts that quite a few of the guilty will be punished with a ban on entry from the Swedish soccer stands.
– On the one hand, clubs can distribute so-identified as organizer suspensions. The police and prosecutors can difficulty entry bans. So the police have to get the job done with AIK and make sure their safety prepare is up to day so that this won’t be able to take place all over again, Ola Österling tells Stockholm police.
At the time of producing, there is no sign that AIK will get penalties for deficiencies or carelessness in its protection get the job done throughout the derby.
– If you did all the things you had to and can not be blamed for what transpired, fines usually are not issued, but then you emphasis on the people today who brought on some thing, says Mats Enquist.
