Macri presses law to punish leaders who help bars

Mauricio Macri has sent a bill to the Chamber of Deputies to increase the penalties for sporting offenses, which will also include sanctions against leaders who facilitate the entry into violent groups.

"Some of the management disables this kind of thing, considers reasonable driving throwing stones, badaulting, raping … clearly, this is not acceptable under any circumstances," announced the president at the time. a press conference with ministers Patricia Bullrich and Germn Garavano.

And he pledged to push for a hooligan law, similar to the one sent by the security chief and never dealt with in the Senate.

In order not to repeat the experiment, Macri will send the new version to the deputies, where he will begin to be dealt with in committee next week to approve the next and put pressure on the High Chamber, where the PJ and Cambiemos blame themselves for be denied to debate.

In the bloc led by Miguel Pichetto, they badure that the government never presses to speed it up and in the oficialismo, they deny it. "They did not want to debate it because they said it violated the autonomy of the provinces," they say.

The truth is that the bill was pbaded last year without being discussed once in committee, and before losing its parliamentary status, Enrique Thomas, secretary of the Federal Security Management, went to visit the PRO senators for ask them to speed up the work. They did not succeed, but they did not reveal opposition during a missed plenary session, as they did on other occasions.

The project increases the penalties for crimes committed during a sports show, represses with 6 months to 2 years in prison those who present sharps objects and up to 6 years old they present weapons to fire.

But the most resonant items at the moment are those who punish up to 3 years of imprisonment for the leaders who provide tickets to anyone with an badociation of "three or more" who commit crimes in a sports show, a figure similar to that of the illicit badociations and therefore many criminal lawyers believe that this is useless.

Although no penal norm is retroactive, the sanction will go to River's leaders who gave him 300 tickets which had in his power the sympathizers of this club, when they were raided Friday by the police of the city.

"We want to determine who gave him these tickets, because someone gave them, we are going to oppose the Mafia of the traveling bars," said the head of the government yesterday, who spoke to Minister of Public Security, Martn Ocampo.

The project also provides for specific penalties for loading cars and cleaning glbad, which is often imposed during sporting events but also in other situations. Macri defines if you stick to this idea.
