Referee receives threats to murder: Football violently exposed!
Ergolding, Deutschland - A shocking incident in football has heated the minds! After a B-junior game between SG Aidenbach/Beutelsbach/Amsham and SVG Ruhstorf, a referee received anonymous threats to murder that caused him and his family to fear and terrify. The referee chairman Simon Leebmann from Passau confirmed the terrifying events and spoke of a "intolerable" situation that exceeds the limits of acceptable
brutal threats!
The threats that landed on the referee's answering machine are more than alarming. A caller left no doubt that he wanted to settle with the referee: "Dilk referee, man. Is killed, this bastard! Bye!" Hours later, another call followed, in which the perpetrator threatened again: "You shouldn't whistle a game anymore. Take care of your life!" These words show the terrifying aggressiveness that cannot be tolerated in football.
The threatened referee has already filed a criminal complaint with the police, who has now investigated the perpetrator. This is said to come from the area of the SVG Ruhstorf. In a joint explanation, the association and the referee group Passau decided to move the next home game against JFG Passau Donautal. "With this measure, we would like to set a clear sign against violence and threats that have no place in football," said those responsible. The situation is an urgent appeal to everyone involved in protecting security in sport.
