“He went to a football match and ended up killing the Buenos Aires police repression.” With that strong sentence, one of César Regueiro’s brothers – the Gimnasia de La Plata fan who died last night in the midst of the incidents during the game against Bocade, denounced the actions of the provincial force.
“Watch the videos. There are infantry policemen shooting tear gas tubes under the gates. With the condensation that was there last night, the gas remained in place and they continued firing. There was over 40 minutes of filming with Ithaca 1270 “, said Oscar Regueiro.
Visibly shaken by the situation, the victim’s brother told the press that the incidents “They would not have been avoided because they were prepared and made by a black hand.”
In the last few hours Sebastián Perea had been appointed as the new head of the department of La Plata. In this sense Sergio attacked: “The dome of La Plata was changed two days ago. Oh coincidence. Who gave the order. Perea?”
And he continued: “I ask Sergio Berni, who gave the order. I want to know who gave the order to continue cracking down on 300,500 supporters who have been out for 40 minutes. Because it was a party inside.
Like the rest of the family, he denied that the victim suffered from heart problems: “A knee problem was the only thing he had. He played football until the age of 42. He never smoked or anything.”
A little earlier, one of César Reguerio’s sons had also pointed out that his father “was left lying down like a dog”.
“We don’t know what happened. As soon as he left the stadium he collapsed. My sister said they left him lying down and they didn’t want to put him in the ambulance,” said Sergio.
“The same people gave him resuscitation and that’s where the problems started so that they tried to help him. Doctors said my father was dead but he was conscious on the floor. Right there they launched a gas again and it decomposed again. The same people ran him sideways, between stones and rubber bullets, “he explained.
“It should have been a party. My old man is gone, but it could have been a much worse tragedy. If they hadn’t thrown the gas, we would be watching the party, “he concluded.
The death of Cesare Regueiro
Last night a key match of the Professional League was played: Gimnasia-Boca. The game was suspended on 9 ‘of the start of the first half due to lack of guarantees after a violent repression by the Buenos Aires Police against thousands of fans of the local cast who tried to enter the stadium when the doors were already closed.
In those accidents, he lost his life Cesare Gustavo Regueiroa 57-year-old municipal worker who died on his way to San Martín hospital.
With the game already started, thousands of Lobo fans were left outside the popular venue, the one overlooking the Forest on 60th Street, because it collapsed. The fans tried to enter by force. And the police sent a hail of bullets and gas.
Everything got worse when the gas, the product of the wind, entered the field. Boca DT Hugo Ibarra was one of the first to run into the middle of the pitch to ask referee Hernán Mastrángelo to stop the game. Quickly, the players from Gimnasia and Boca entered the locker room because breathing was impossible. The fans who were in the Platea Néstor Basile fled as best they could.
The chaos took over everyone in the popular club because no one could get out: they stayed trapped and without oxygen because under that stand the police have not stopped repressing and adding gas. Some lucky ones managed to jump onto the playing field and escape. Others tried to blow air into their faces by waving their shirts.
César Regueiro saw how his two grandchildren could not breathe. Desperate, he tried to get out even though the doors were closed. When he did, he disappeared. Other fans have tried giving him cardiopulmonary resuscitation. “The doctors said he was already dead, when in fact he was lucid. They left him lying around », the family denounces.
This Thursday they would perform an autopsy to find out more details about the death. Meanwhile, Axel Kicillof’s government has removed the head of the operation and the police officers who have been identified.
