293. Mr Comolli dealt with the matter in this way in his witness statement:
"[M]y recollection was that LS had replied to PE "Why, because you are black?". I
thought he had said "Por que, tu eres negro?" or "Por que es negro?". "Por que" can
mean both "Because" and "Why" in Spanish. I thought that LS had said "Por que"
meaning "Because" and therefore assumed that he would have used the words "you
are" to say "Because you are black?". Instead LS said "Por que" to mean "why" as in
"Por que negro?". I therefore accept LS´s version that he said "Por que negro?" in
reply to PE´s request that he should not touch him."
Det her var hvad der skete umiddelbart efter kampen efter dommernes rapport:
289. With those matters in mind, we turn to consider what Mr Marriner was told. Mr Dalglish
told him that Mr Suarez had said "you are black". Mr Comolli told him that Mr Suarez
said "Tues negro". As Mr Dowd told us, Mr Comolli spelt "Tues negro" and Mr Dowd
noted it down. In cross-examination on this point, Mr Comolli agreed that he told Mr
Marriner that Mr Suarez had said "Porque tu es negro". But, he denied that he dictated all
the words. He said that he just said "negro", that Mr Dowd asked Mr Comolli to spell
"negro", and he did not remember dictating the full sentence. We were surprised by Mr
Comolli´s evidence that he only dictated the word "negro" in view of the contents of Mr
Marriner´s report, and his and Mr Dowd´s witness statements. Mr Dowd stated that he
asked Mr Comolli to spell "Tues negro" and Mr Dowd then noted it down. Those words
appear in Mr Marriner´s report. Mr Marriner´s and Mr Dowd´s witness statements were
accepted in full by Mr Suarez. We find that Mr Comolli told Mr Marriner that Mr Suarez
had said "Porque tu es negro" to Mr Evra, and that Mr Comolli spelt "Tues negro" for Mr
Dowd, who wrote it down.
