Paris Metro CCTV Expose Chelsea fans sought by police


Images of three men being sought by police in connection with an incident of alleged racism by Chelsea fans on the Paris Metro on Tuesday evening have been released. The Metropolitan Police said the men were captured on CCTV ahead of the club's 1-1 draw with Paris St-Germain. It comes after Chelsea barred two more fans from attending matches in Stamford Bridge, taking the total number of people suspended to five.

According to BBC, footage taken at the station showed a black man being pushed from a train.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho said he was ashamed by the incident.
The alleged victim, who has since been identified as 33-year old Souleymane said the fans should be locked up.

"I felt truly wounded to the bottom of my heart that I really couldn't believe it.
"We are in 2015, aren't we, and we are in France. We're in a civilised country and when you are in a civilised country there are certain things you can't do.
"For me, it's a humiliation. I was humiliated in my country. I was humiliated in front of my family, humiliated in front of my mother and father." Souleymane said.

A group of people can be heard singing "we are racist, we are racist and that's the way we like it" in an amateur video taken at the Paris Metro.
The incident took place at Richelieu-Drouot station in the centre of the French capital and police said the appeal for information is supporting a French police investigation.

Chelsea has said it will ban the five suspended fans from attending Stamford Bridge for life if there is sufficient evidence of their involvement.
A club spokesman said they were writing to Souleymane to "apologise unreservedly" and invite him to attend a game as their guest.

Lunar eclipse The longest total lunar eclipse of the 21st century occurs on July 27 – this is what you need to know. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the entire Moon enters Earth’s shadow. The July 27 eclipse will last for 1 hour and 43 minutes, according to NASA . The Moon will turn a red or ruddy-brown color during the “blood moon eclipse,” Space.com reports. Skywatchers in the U.S will not be able to enjoy the rare event, unless they are willing to travel. The eclipse will be mainly visible in Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia as well as some parts of South America. “For an especially long-lasting total lunar eclipse of 1 hour and 43 minutes to occur, the moon has to pass through the central part of the Earth’s shadow,” explains EarthSky. “The previous total lunar eclipse on January 31, 2018, didn’t last as long (1 hour and 16 minutes) because the moon passed to the south of shadow’s center; and the next total lunar eclipse on January 21, 2019 , won’t be as long eith
