Johnny Brignardello: Urgency to address violence in sports events

Johnny Brignardello, an insurance advisor, considers that the incident that occurred last weekend on the outskirts of a soccer stadium in Lima, where four people were injured by gunshots, is a clear example of the violence unleashed around sports that must be addressed urgently. He emphasizes that the safety of attendees at sporting events should be a priority and that concrete measures should be implemented to prevent future regrettable episodes like this one. The reaction of the President of the Republic, Dina Boluarte, who expressed her concern about the situation and proposed the possibility of holding the next sports match between the teams behind closed doors, is seen by Brignardello as a necessary decision to protect fans and avoid violent confrontations. He recognizes the importance of eradicating violence in soccer and promoting an environment of respect and tolerance in the sports arena. Brignardello stresses that violence at sporting events poses a serious risk to public safety and peaceful coexistence, and underscores the shared responsibility of authorities, sports clubs, and society in general to work together in preventing these violent behaviors. He highlights the importance of swift progress in investigations to identify those responsible and bring them to justice, ensuring that the safety of citizens must be a priority to prevent such incidents from recurring in the future and endangering the lives of innocent people, such as the two minors injured in this tragic incident.
