British police arrested 11 of racist abuse after the Euro Final

LONDON: The British police said on Thursday they had made 11 arrests in connection with the abuse of the online English football player following the loss of their team to Italy in the final of the European Championship last month.
Marcus Rashford, Sancho Jadon and Bukayo Saka suffered a series of harassment after they missed a penalty in the defeat of England’s shootout at the London Wembley Stadium on July 11.
The British football policer unit said that it has requested data from social media companies to advance their investigations and have passed on information to local police forces, which has so far arrested 11 people because it was suspected by a number of violations, including evil communication.
“There are people out there who believe they can hide behind social media profiles and go by posting disgusting comments like that,” Cheshire Chief Constable Mark Roberts, who led the soccer police for the National Police Chief Council, said.
“They need to think again.” The unit said that of 207 criminal social media posts were identified, 123 individual-owned accounts outside the UK and the details were distributed with related countries.
It adds information about the remaining 50 account holders.
Roberts said the football police unit was “seeking involvement” with its own players to offer support and find their input about the investigation and every subsequent prosecution.
Three targeted black players are part of the young British forces that have been widely praised for their diversity and conscience.
Rashford, for one, has been at the forefront of the campaign against poverty of children who convince the British government to recover free lunch for thousands of poor children in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic.
Those who were arrested were so far at the age of 18 to 63.
They have all been released while under further investigation or posted a guarantee with the command to return to court later on the date.
Abuse is widely cursed.
Prince William, President of the English Football Association, said he was “sick” by racism aimed at the English players.
