College of California ball player Fardaws Aimaq, whose guardians are Afghan exiles, went into the stands and faced a fan who had purportedly insulted him as a “psychological oppressor,” the school said Wednesday.
In video broadly coursed via online entertainment, Aimaq, a 6-foot-11 forward, moves up the cheap seats before he arrives at a young fellow — who is extensively more limited.
“Would you like to talk? Would you like to talk?” Aimaq seems to request the youthful fan after the College from Texas at El Paso’s 75-72 success over the Bears in a game played in San Juan Capistrano, California.
It isn’t evident whether the young fellow answers, and Aimaq withdraws before the showdown can raise.
Cal mentor Imprint Madsen said he has requested coordinators from the SoCal Challenge competition to have the fan prohibited.
“All through and after Monday’s down, Fardaws Aimaq was supposedly exposed to detestable and hostile remarks from a fan — including being known as a psychological militant,” Madsen said in an explanation the school gave early Wednesday night. “I have asked the SoCal Challenge competition chief that a proper examination be led and that this fan be banned from the premises.”
While Madsen said he was “upset that Fardaws was purportedly on the less than desirable finish of such language,” he said he wished Aimaq could not have possibly faced the fan.
“Fardaws and I had a significant discussion today about how he wants to keep calm paying little mind to what happens in a game or what is shared with him straightforwardly,” said Madsen, who is in his most memorable season in charge in Berkeley. “Fardaws comprehends my assumptions for how he as an understudy competitor behaves. The results connected with this present circumstance will be overseen inside.”
Aimaq, who was brought into the world in Vancouver, English Columbia, was back in the beginning arrangement Wednesday night when Cal played Tulane in the reassurance game.
The 24-year-old Aimaq showed up at Berkeley subsequent to having played at Texas Tech, Mercer and for Madsen at Utah Valley.
It wasn’t quickly clear Wednesday night assuming the fan in the video had been recognized.
“Occasion coordinators were made mindful of the issue by Cal delegates on Wednesday morning,” competition coordinators said in an explanation. “Security has been informed to stringently authorize the approach and an inner examination is continuous connected with Monday’s occasions.”
