1:02 pm
a few hours at all this place the very heart of moscow my guess ness where just a few steps away from the kremlin was the scene of the extreme violence thousands of hopewell thousands more gathered here to protest and to commemorate the death of one of their own a football that i mean the flu was shot dead protesters were throwing bottles of fireworks starting fires rocks at riot police who were trying to do their best to vent taina violence to prevent it from spreading further we've heard police. to not give in to provocations to not partake in the violence but still many people were injured we saw them happen in blood being taken away by ambulances to get treated a lot of people were detained after they clashed with riot police to do it because . some people have reacted very violently to the death of the sport but i do believe that some of their dissatisfaction is understandable but it is unacceptable
1:03 pm

1:04 pm
different from their own so it does appear that most of the violence today was not actually lost by the who were allegedly here simply for a. long while it wasn't that instigated the nationalist movement. of his country newshour of the reporting there from moscow meantime sean thomas was outside the court where three men will appear in connection with the violence that led to the death of the spartak moscow football fan he explains what happened that day and the knock on effects. it all started on monday after a match where fans in an incident involving around ten people got involved in a brawl in that incident you go to was shot and killed allegedly by. now. there are proceedings against him he has been charged with homicide but initially in the immediate. incident things escalated in fact people took to the
1:05 pm
streets it is believed it became more than just a dispute between east. and north caucasus nationals it became more of a race issue in fact russian nationals against the north caucasus in fact. from. some of the escalation in this incident but people in that after that fight going to the streets demanding that this person be arrested he was charged with homicide two other people have been charged with is to getting a fight as well and through the past week things have escalated wednesday there was a match in the champions league between. and in that match fans actually rushed the pitch twice in two separate incidents involved in violent behavior also. threw flares onto the pitch forced the players to leave the pitch on two separate occasions. say that this behavior is completely unacceptable and while this was
1:06 pm
happening in a champions league event officials say that this could affect chances in the europa league in fact they say that there will be sanctions of some sort the team decision will take place will happen on december sixteenth and in fact. could be facing expulsion from the europa league in this instance so though the fans themselves are responsible for the behavior it is having an effect on the team because officials say that this behavior just will not be tolerated in sports. place events now would jump a football jenison right eagle rabbinate to discuss what's going on. how much what today's events to do with football do you think. good evening first of all i'd like to say that. it's totally unacceptable because you know we could understand some social problems that are going on in russia. connected with the killing of these spartak moscow fans by people from coke and republics but it
1:07 pm
doesn't take does doesn't it doesn't have any anything in common with football. that's why all this incident that happened in slovakia at the game so. why is no nobody no realistic people could understand why these people should have reflected their maybe their feelings their emotions. on the football game which is which has nothing in common and so they could really damage their club spartak moscow and. it could be only. it could not be not not held but only something that can really make things worse for sparta so just the less it has it it has mocked it out you've written a book about spot you know fairly well about this club event even to their fans
1:08 pm
is this violent behavior character. you know i was i wouldn't mention spartak fans as a certain group which differs from the group from the other groups on the other club's fans so the only difference is that there are much more spartak fans than any other fans in this country because part of his most popular club. with a big big margin with anyone else so it's the only. for us because you know. it is more of the issues of. political issues because older. fans. they wish they used the same rhetorical be used the same. as the same things like the russians for russia and. the russians the russians
1:09 pm
go ahead so you're. right i take it what you say there that the situation as you put it is no worse for spot than than anyone else is just going to big a proportion of fans ok but it has led to some trouble for spot side there is a worry that they could be disqualified from the roper league because of previous credit problems to is having an effect is no. i think that maybe they wouldn't disqualify because the so we see if. so much see more serious incident in it delivers a serbia game. or the two it was the qualifying game of euro two thousand and twelve but he was not disqualified. despite many people expected this kind of decision. so i think it will be huge. fine or maybe relieved that you will have to play one no two games with the.
1:10 pm
old crowd at the old beach might forecast for that but but at the same time you so i think that. if. we go if it was recently gave russia the right to host the world cup two thousand and eighteen so if fifa made. something so. say something that this behavior is from a vision this come from ground level shouldn't this come from spartak itself it's mostly well known club surely the management they should be talking to their fans the players should be talking to the fans saying that none of this is acceptable you have. in my opinion the problem is not exactly ball spartak but it's exactly about the whole russian football which don't have this a real serious program to fight against violence these stadiums and outside of
1:11 pm
them. our football doesn't have to almost policy of the protection of the normal spectators and that's why the. there is a pretty small audience coming to the russian premier league games because ordinary people ordinary france they are really scared to communicate to deal with these aggressive fans. at the same time to deal with the very aggressive. polluted russia police which doesn't know how to deal with the people at the stadiums so it's much more general problem which is really not exactly about spartak but about all russian football as you say you know what are you dress it up it is a sad day for russian football a russian football journalist and why thanks for your thoughts on the program tonight. thank you the u.s. considers promoting human rights worldwide a priority but some critics say america's track record is far from blameless the
