The Zurich cantonal police have set up a "Sport" task force. Among other things, it is tasked with investigating two incidents in recent weeks in which FCZ and GC fan groups clashed in Zurich's rural communities.
The newly established task force is intended in particular to identify related crimes and groups of offenders and coordinate investigations, thereby increasing the pressure to prosecute the perpetrators, as the Zurich cantonal police announced on Tuesday.
According to the press release, the willingness of certain fan groups from the FCZ and GC football clubs to engage in violence is no longer limited to match days and the areas surrounding the stadiums.
