Overview

  • Prosecutor Mariano Zitto said some IndependienteUniversidad de Chile incidents are classified as attempted homicide, ordered the sealing of affected tribunes, and linked any reopening to a coordinated security plan with AFA, Conmebol, Aprevide and the club.
  • Investigators reviewed hundreds of videos and cited prevention and coordination failures between private security and police after bloodied stairways, ripped fixtures and other extensive destruction were documented.
  • The Chamber of Deputies delayed by one week the creation of a commission on contaminated-fentanyl deaths as blocs negotiate its format, with follow-up meetings scheduled to unify a draft for dictamen.
  • Federal judge Sebastián Casanello directed raids in Nordelta to secure access logs and camera footage in an ANDIS-related kickbacks probe involving Suizo Argentina’s owners, following a statement from the complex’s security chief.
  • Prosecutors asked to send a Gendarmerie shooting case in Santa Fe to oral trial for attempted serious injury and duty violations, while police pursued separate probes into a fatal Ruta 34 rollover that exposed 289 grams of cocaine, a Mexico City microbus crash with 10 injured, and a 12-year-old struck after exiting a bus near Córdoba.
