Independent can’t find the way. His problems are not only on the field of play, but he is going through a real institutional crisis. That is why the fans decided to call themselves to at the clubhouse located on Avenida Miterin the heart of Avellaneda, and demand the call for presidential elections. It all ended with serious incidents.

This Friday, the leaders discussed the budget corresponding to the period from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023. That is why the fans, aware that Hugo Moyano -president of the club- and the staff of the ruling party are at the headquarters, went to the place to demand the call for electionswhich are suspended from december last year.
