Peverengo on Colón sanctions, Unión-Boca and Tan Biónica plans

The Provincial Director of Security at Mass Events, Fernando Peverengo, provided details about the security agenda in Santa Fe. In a press conference, the official confirmed sanctions following incidents in the boxes at Colón, gave a preview of the security operation for Unión-Boca, and discussed the logistics for the highly anticipated Tan Biónica show.

Scandal at Colón: Alcohol, assault, and box closure

Peverengo reported that, during a search at Colón’s stadium, police personnel detected alcohol consumption in a box on the third floor (south sector). When attempting to enter, the occupants resisted and one of them physically assaulted an officer.

Consequences: The aggressor was taken away and received a two-year admission ban. In addition, the Ministry of Security will notify the club of the closure of the box for two matches.
Security lapse: The official explained that at Colón, box holders have their own keys, which makes it easier to bring in drinks in the days prior to the match, complicating the “zero hour” searches carried out by the police.

Unión vs. Boca Operation: Capacity and advice for fans

Looking ahead to Sunday’s match, Peverengo confirmed that the operation will include the usual 265 officers, with no increase due to Boca’s presence, as they consider this the necessary number for Unión’s dynamics.

Early entry: With the expectation of a sold-out stadium, he asked members to enter early. He warned that the proximity of the municipal “pre-party” to the stadium causes people to try to enter 15 or 20 minutes after the game has started, creating bottlenecks.
Accommodation: The Xeneize squad will stay at the port hotel, where a security cordon will also be set up.

The challenge of Tan Biónica in the city

Finally, he referred to the Tan Biónica concert as a significant logistical challenge. Unlike other mass shows (such as La Renga), this audience is more family-oriented and adolescent, so the focus will be on the “outside.”

Control of “trapitos”: Peverengo emphasized that they will work hard in the entry corridors and to prevent harassment by parking attendants toward those coming from outside the city, aiming for the event itself to make the news, not external incidents.
