The case of a badly wounded fan outside the Donostian camp during a football match between the Real Sociedad and Paris Saint-Germain jumped this Tuesday to the general assembly of the Real Sociedad, where the president of the Donostiarra club, Jokin APERRIBAY, had to explain.

On March 5, 2024, Amaia Zabarte, a photo enthusiast, suffered a serious accident when searching for mobile coverage in the vicinity of the Reale Arena, apparently by a foam projector on the head. Later, according to the images of the videos, an ertzaina, instead of helping him, kicked him.

In the assembly of the Royal Society the family of Zabarte has taken the floor and accused the club of not publicly condemning the police attack: “We are disappointed and sad,” explained his partner, Joseba Novoa, who denounced that Real has treated them as “second-rate victims.”

Aperribay replied that they do not see the need to publish a public statement, but that it has privately asked the Ertzaintza for "responsibilities". As he explained, he has been assured that "there will be an answer from the people".

Zabarte’s case is currently in court. The Basque Government’s Department of Security says that “it cannot be confirmed that the projectile was a foam” that seriously injured the Real fan. However, the Provincial Court of Gipuzkoa requested in November the reopening of the case to the Court of Instruction of Donostia-San Sebastián for its investigation. In fact, according to the judge, some images that day show "the evidence" that the deceased was hit with a foam shell.

The Department of Security, despite the fact that several months have passed, has not provided further data on the internal investigation of what happened by the Ertzaintza. The family now calls for another police force to investigate the case: “Anyone else will do better,” he said.
