Fan handed 3-year Daspo for racially abusing Roma defender
The author of the vicious racist insults was reported by Roma who had also taken steps to remove him from the stadium for life. The 36-year-old from Civitavecchia was denounced by Digos police for threats aggravated by racial hatred and stalking, as well as being held for three years.
Satisfied with the result obtained, the mayor of Rome- Virginia Raggi tweeted that there is no room for racism in football in Italy:
Bene denuncia e daspo per 3 anni all’autore dei commenti razzisti contro il difensore della @OfficialASRoma #JuanJesus. Nel calcio e a @Roma non c’è spazio per odio razziale e discriminazioni.
