Il “Champions security project”

As far as the Champions League 2009 Final is concerned, operational meetings and briefings with the Questore of Rome have long been organized in order to combine, among other things, the UEFA needs with those of security.

After identifying the semifinalist teams the CNIMS, in a first briefing, will provide information centres of the semifinalist teams’ origin countries with information on issues, such as the relevant legislation, organizational aspects of the event, identification of the responsible police authorities, etc.Furthermore, in the subsequent phase when the finalist teams have been identified, the CNIMS will send to the information centres of the countries concerned requests for information on the transfers of common and “risky” supporters of the participating team and its escort (in case of threat) as well as on ticket sale. Possibly, it will also request cooperation for the secondment of liaison officers and an appropriate number of spotters and uniformed officers, who will be made available to the Questura of Rome in order to escort and assist supporters under their competence, and also any other relevant information.

The CNIMS will then provide information centres of the two finalist teams’ countries with information on the organization of public order services, in particular on the ways how to integrate police officers in the local public order system, as well as on the directives concerning supporters, etc.

Before the event

Liaison officers, spotters and uniformed personnel will be hosted by the Italian government that will be responsible for accreditation, instructions for operational plans, accommodation, food, technical equipment. The Italian government will also ensure their safety and support on the field. Travel expenses will be borne by the origin country.

Once ticket buyers’ names have been obtained the CNIMS will involve the counterparts of the interested countries in order to receive information on them and verify whether they include persons able to cause disturbances to public order and security.

The “Champions security project”

During the event - from 22 May 2009 (opening of the Champions Festival) to 28 May 2009 (the day after the Final) the CNIMS members will also include the two liaison officers of the finalist countries.

The CNIMS – without overlapping of activities - will analyze at central level the outcome of the activities carried out by the offices of the Public Security Department responsible, each in its field of activity, for the collection and and analysis of information coming from other sources, also international ones (Interpol, Europol, Schengen and Police Working Group on Terrorism – PWGOT) by ensuring information exchange for a general threat assessment both at national and international level.

durante dell’evento

Moreover, the CNIMS will constantly exchange the relevant data with the information centres of the finalist countries for an update of the risk analysis as well as with all the NFIP concerned for the transfer and arrival monitoring, including accommodation and departure time and modalities.

The CNIMS will constantly provide liaison officers seconded to Rome with information on visitors-related events and police custody measures as well as with a description of possible incidents.

Il “Champions security project”

At strategic level the CNIMS will assess supporters’ behaviour in order to allow information centre of the assisting country to update visitors’ risk analysis.

At operational level, the operative usefulness of the information provided by the information centres of the other countries will be assessed together with the level of risk posed by the away team.
