Ljubo Pavasović Visković spoke out after the Torcida wildfire: I am not afraid of anyone
Split police arrested three individuals linked to shameful and antisemitic chants by part of the Torcida fan group before a match between Hajduk and Ajax at Poljud Stadium. The suspects were taken into custody, and a criminal investigation is underway regarding alleged offenses of inciting violence and hatred. Ljubo Pavasović Visković, president of Hajduk's Supervisory Board, addressed RTL Danas, denying any discomfort over the incidents and criticizing media outlets for previously praising certain war crimes while now condemning Hajduk's reaction. He emphasized that the club's stance against extremism is clear but noted that responsibility lies across society, not solely on the club. Pavasović Visković stated he personally does not fear anyone and stressed that living in a democratic society with laws ensures order if everyone follows them. He also mentioned that the stadium, built in 1979, is vulnerable to pyrotechnics and other issues, and that Hajduk has done everything possible to ensure the match proceeds smoothly. He expects UEFA to impose a penalty soon.
Ljubo Pavasović Visković Responds to Controversial Question About Torcida: 'Does Anyone Think It Was Not Uncomfortable for Us?' In the wake of controversial scenes across the city and later at the stadium, which caused a certain shock among both citizens and institutions, police action has begun. No one has failed to comment on these events, with reactions coming from the public prosecutor, HNS, and even the national leadership. In Hajduk, however, the situation has taken on its own dynamics. Split police have arrested three individuals following incidents involving part of the Torcida before the match against Ajax, during which anti-Semitic chants and calls for Adolf Hitler were heard in the supporters' section. Police announced they are conducting a criminal investigation due to suspicions of inciting violence and hatred, and are identifying other perpetrators. The incident was condemned by the Israeli embassy, the public prosecutor, the Croatian Football Federation, and the national leadership. Ljubo Pavasović Visković, president of the Supervisory Board of Hajduk, commented on the events and the accusations that the club fears the Torcida. When asked whether he found it uncomfortable because of the anti-Semitic messages, he replied: "Is anyone asking me or anyone in the club what we think about it? Does anyone think we weren't uncomfortable or that we find it beautiful and wonderful? No, we don’t think so." He added that he would not allow insults against the club. "But we will not allow ourselves to be insulted by local press that a week ago published a panegyric about war crimes, yet today is shocked about whether Hajduk reacted or not," he said. "On does Hajduk fear the Torcida? Personally, I am not afraid of anyone." "It is clear what we think and what every civilized person thinks about all of this. However, I repeat, we are neither the police, nor the Ministry of Education, nor primary and secondary schools that should have taught children something else," he stated. When directly asked if Hajduk fears the Torcida, Pavasović Visković said: "Personally, I am not afraid of anyone, and there is no reason for anyone to be afraid of anyone. We live in a democratic society with laws. Let everyone abide by what they should and adhere to the law, and everything will be fine. There is no talk of fear or anything similar." Igor Štimac Warns Torcida Youth: 'Open Your Eyes Wide, You Are Deceived' Speaking about the anti-Semitic and Nazi chants by Torcida members before the match against Ajax, former Croatian national team player and coach Igor Štimac warned that everything seemed prepared. In an interview with RTL, he sent a message: "First of all, to the youth of the Torcida. Open your eyes wide, boys. You are deceived, you made a mistake, reconsider who your leaders are and who suggested you do this." "There are always inserted elements, and I have had my battles with some of them in my time. They have their names and surnames, and they need to be sanctioned," he continued. "We always talk about those who allowed it and why they allowed it, because we know there are security measures, we know what the protocols are before, during, and after matches. Let's talk about individuals and individual responsibility," he emphasized. Three people have been arrested so far, and more are being identified. According to unofficial reports, police are searching for at least ten more people, including those at the top of the Torcida hierarchy. Police are using footage from street cameras, journalists, and citizens, along with surveillance camera recordings. Police Arrest Three Nazis from Torcida, Search Continues Split police have arrested three Nazis from the Torcida, and the search continues. It is known what penalties await them. Reactions to the scandalous behavior of part of the Torcida members before the match against Ajax are being followed. The police separately handed over five people to the court for investigation, four Croatian citizens and one Pole, for coercion against an official and causing disorder on the Riviera before the match. During the securing of the match, 28 domestic fans were also detained, some for pyrotechnics. President of the Supervisory Board of Hajduk, Ljubo Pavasović Visković, told RTL Danas that the club does not fear the Torcida, while one father requested the expulsion of underage children from membership due to the management’s failure to act. Former Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor Reacts to Anti-Semitic Chants Former Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor reacted to the anti-Semitic and Nazi chants heard during the Torcida procession towards Poljud before the match against Ajax. Part of the fans chanted against Jews, mentioned Auschwitz, and praised Adolf Hitler, prompting the police to launch an investigation and begin arrests. Kosor linked the events in Split to a broader relationship between the government and Ustasha symbolism and the greeting "For the homeland ready." She warned that such a relationship creates space for even more radical statements. Social Reaction and Institutional Responses Reactions have come from throughout the political and social spectrum. The incident has drawn condemnation from the entire political and social spectrum. Fans chanted anti-Semitic and Ustasha slogans, mentioned Auschwitz and Adolf Hitler, and sang insulting songs about Anne Frank. As the police operation continues, Dalmacija Danas reported that one fan, Jure D., ended up in prison last night, unable to wait until the end of the match on Poljud. The 24-year-old was arrested around 20:25 on the western stand. Documenta Calls on Government to Take Responsibility Documenta, the Center for Confronting the Past, responded to the Torcida's dangerous behavior in Split, calling on the government to take responsibility instead of using fan groups as an outlet for views they promote without sanctioning them. The organization called on the Government of the Republic of Croatia to clearly condemn the actions and take responsibility. Criminalist Warns of Danger After Scandal in Split Criminalist Tonči Prodan warned of the danger after the scandal in Split, revealing how the police can identify perpetrators: "There is a whole range of traces." Šafarić Comments on Hajduk's Performance Nikola Šafarić, coach of Varaždin, commented on Hajduk's performance, stating that the club has shown quality but needs to play properly to be competitive. Štimac Sends Message to Torcida: 'Open Your Eyes Wide, There Are Inserted Elements' Štimac sent a message to the Torcida, warning that everything seems prepared and advising the youth to open their eyes wide and reconsider who their leaders are. Pavasović Visković Says He Is Not Afraid of Anyone Pavasović Visković denied that the club fears the Torcida, emphasizing that everyone should abide by the law and that there is no talk of fear or anything similar. Sociologist Criticizes Torcida's Behavior Dr. sc. Krešimir Krolo, associate professor of sociology at the University of Zadar and former member of the supervisory board of the Split football club, criticized the Torcida's behavior, stating that the society has created an atmosphere that led to the incident. Milanović Condemns Torcida's Nazi Outbursts President Zoran Milanović condemned the unacceptable and shameful behavior of part of the Torcida fans before the football match in Split. He called for an immediate and systematic reaction from the police, prosecution, and ultimately the courts. Conclusion The incident involving the Torcida before the match against Ajax has sparked widespread condemnation and legal action. The police have arrested several individuals, and the club has responded to allegations of fear, denying them and emphasizing adherence to the law. The situation highlights the need for responsible behavior and the importance of addressing extremist elements within fan culture.
