Seven Sporting ultras charged with attempted murder of Porto fans | OneFootball

The Public Prosecutor's Office accuses seven Sporting ultras of attempted qualified homicide against five FC Porto supporters, according to Jornal de Notícias. The events relate to an ambush directed at members linked to the Super Dragões, which took place after a roller hockey game between the two teams at the João Rocha Pavilion on June 10.

In addition to the five charges of attempted qualified homicide, the defendants also face ten charges of qualified physical assault, one charge of arson, five charges of robbery, and three of qualified damage.

The accusation claims, among other facts, that the accused acted based on a "plan" aimed at setting fire to the vehicles in which the FC Porto supporters were traveling, an objective that was achieved with respect to "one of the vehicles." The victims were assaulted inside the car, which ended up catching fire after being hit by pyrotechnic material.
