The Fiscal Unit Specialized in Massive Events of the City of Buenos Aires identified this Thursday the member of River’s barra brava who launched a marine flare from one of the stands of the Monumental stadium during the development of the superclassic against Boca, last Sunday.
The individual, identified as Sebastián Sohar Tejada and a member of the official faction of “Los Borrachos del Tablón”, was charged with “attempted homicide, resistance to authority and illicit association”. The Buenos Aires Justice raided his home on Thursday in the Buenos Aires town of Merlo, where evidence was taken for the case.
Sohar Tejada, who will be investigated in the next few hours, witnessed the match with Boca despite being prohibited from entering the stadium and the club due to the validity of the right of admission since 2018. River sources assured the Télam agency that the accused was expelled as a member that year and that he did not have a valid card or ticket to attend the Superclásico.
The hypotheses about his presence in the Monumental are oriented to an income with the card of a third party or to the use of the tumult that was generated on Udaondo Avenue before the match, which allowed many fans without tickets to access the facilities of River .
