The investigation into the allegations of two women who were allegedly injured by foam balls during the match between the Royal Society and the PSG in March last year has today taken a further step. The statements of the Ertzainas, which have been repeatedly requested by their families, have begun today in San Sebastian.
Inthe case of Amaia Zabarte, two Ertzainas have testified today, one as an investigator and the other as a witness, at the Donostia Palace of Justice. In March 2024, in the run-up to the Real Sociedad-PSG Champions League match,\u00A0 during the incidents in the Anoeta area.
After the statements, the victim's lawyer, Iker Sarriegi , has explained to the media that the officer who has testified as an investigator has denied having kicked Zabarte in the head. "He told the judge that he was running, that he stumbled and managed to move on, but that at no time did he kick," the lawyer explained.
According to the officer who testified, his unit did not load and did not fire foam balls at the time.
In addition to these two officers, six other Ertzainas were scheduled to testify at today's session, but there was a mistake. The latter have been summoned to testify in connection with the case of Maria Martin, the other woman injured in those incidents, instead of the Zabarte case.
The same court is investigating the two cases, but the investigations have been divided and the confusion has been there, and finally, Sarriegi has clarified, they have been summoned by 5 December.
