Biometric access control is based on physical characteristics such as fingerprints, iris scans or a facial scan. “Knowing who you have in your home, that’s where it starts,” Holla told the newspaper. “We see new groups appearing on the scene every time, such as the fifth or sixth generation of F-side supporters.”
Better security
The triangle (mayor, police and justice) is looking for a solution to the persistent problems in and around the stadium. Earlier this month, chief officer De Beukelaer told AT5 that he believes that clubs should do more in the field of security.
Mayor Halsema has also stated that she believes that Ajax should appoint better and more professional security staff. She emphasizes that the police must stay outside the stadium.
It seems unlikely that biometric access control will actually be introduced at the Arena. There are strict laws in the Netherlands regarding the use of access based on physical characteristics.
