Lazio FC fined but avoids stadium ban for Anne Frank photo
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleLazio has been fined 50,000 euros ($61,000) but avoided a stadium ban over posters created by their fans featuring Holocaust victim Anne Frank, the Italian football federation (FIGC) announces.
FIGC prosecutor Giuseppe Pecoraro had demanded a fine and two games be played behind closed doors after Lazio’s infamous ultra fans fly-posted photos of Anne Frank in a shirt of bitter city rivals Roma during a game against Cagliari last October.
The FICG says in a statement that its sporting tribunal had decided on a “partial acceptance” of the prosecutor’s requests.
