Barça Fan Groups Condemn Police Action

FC Barcelona animation groups have jointly condemned police actions during the Elche-Barça match where a fan was detained and reportedly struck by officers.

FC Barcelona animation groups Nostra Ensenya, Almogàvers, Front 532, and Supporters Barça expressed solidarity with a fan who was detained and allegedly hit by National Police agents during the prolegómenos of Sunday's Elche-Barça match. The incident occurred after police confiscated an Estelada flag from the supporter.

The groups issued a joint statement condemning what they described as "disproportionate and unjustified" police action, calling for respect for fans' rights and expressions of identity during matches. esporist.org
