The City Security Committee decided this Tuesday that Uriel Hamra, the fan who entered the pitch at La Bombonera during the Superclásico between Boca and River and was assaulted by Maximiliano Salas, will be banned from stadiums for two years. The sanction, applied under the 'Tribuna Segura' program, promoted by the Ministry of National Security, was issued after the Xeneize supporter violated articles 111 (entering the venue without proper authorization) and 119 (inciting disorder). Thus, the Committee imposed the maximum possible sanction in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA) for cases of right of admission: Hamra will not be able to watch live matches from the stands for two years. When he was removed from Brandsen 805, the fan was carrying a press credential issued by the club's secretariat, although he later presented himself publicly as a supporter. Meanwhile, the possible sanction for River Plate's forward, Maximiliano Salas, who struck the fan while he was recording a video mocking the millionaire players after the 2-0 defeat, remains to be determined. According to reports, if Hamra confirms before the South Prosecutor's Office what he publicly stated—that the player did not want to assault him but only to lower his phone—Salas would not be sanctioned. If the fan changes his version and reports an assault by the footballer, the forward with a past in Racing will have to wait for the resolution of the justice system once the judicial process begins.
