PSG Bans Parias Cohortis for Rest of Season After Ultras’ Highway Ambush

The move signals a tougher stance on supporter violence.

Overview

  • PSG on Monday barred the Parias Cohortis group through season’s end after a Saturday attack on a supporters’ bus on the A11 motorway.
  • The sanction means the group will miss Tuesday’s Champions League semifinal first leg against Bayern Munich at the Parc des Princes.
  • Reports say members of Parias Cohortis ambushed a bus carrying the Urban Paris group at the Charmes rest area, throwing projectiles and smoke devices that shattered windows while families were on board.
  • The targeted coach later turned back near La Ferté‑Bernard and the Collectif Ultras Paris canceled the planned trip for about 500 traveling fans, with no precise injury count released.
  • A prefectural source cited only a minor Parcé rest‑area incident that drew gendarmes, while media describe a recurring feud between PSG ultra factions that could bring tighter rules on future away travel.
