Fernando Madureira, the leader of the Super Dragons, was identified by the president of the PSP, Anibal Damas, as one of the nine members of Porto fans who allegedly attacked police officers who were protecting the arrival of Benfica fans who were arriving by metro to the stadium. Pitch with stones and dragon torches.
Among the more than 200 waiting Super Dragons was Hugo Carneiro, known as “Polaco”, who was also recognized.
The “monkey” was identified even though his face was covered due to the clothing he was wearing: he was wearing black pants with white stripes and sneakers in the same colors. As soon as he entered the pavilion – where the hockey match between FC Porto and Benfica was held in April 2018 – he appeared with his face uncovered and wearing the same clothes and shoes, Correio da Manhá reported on Tuesday.
The head of authorities maintained his “certainty” before the court, stressing that he had known them for a long time and therefore was able to recognize him immediately.
Recall that Fernando Madureira and “Polaco”, those responsible for the Super Dragões, are in pretrial detention as part of the recent “Operation Praetorian”, and they attended the hearing. The second is physical, unlike the leader of the Super Dragons, who was following the trial via video, from the prison attached to the Judicial Police, where he is located.
