Authorities in Avellaneda, Buenos Aires province, have detailed a comprehensive security operation for the public vigil of iconic Argentine rock musician Carlos 'Indio' Solari, scheduled for Sunday at Parque Dominico.

The security plan includes personnel from the Buenos Aires Provincial Police, specialized units, traffic agents, and medical stations. Entry to the Polideportivo โ€˜Josรฉ Marรญa Gaticaโ€™ will be managed through a designated corridor, with queuing organized along Avenida Bartolomรฉ Mitre. Several health posts will be stationed at key intersections to provide assistance.

All the atmosphere that must be generated and built must be one of respect, affection, and recognition. It is very important that all those who attend do so with that spirit: of good coexistence, dialogue, and patience.

โ€” Javier AlonsoMinister of Security of Buenos Aires province, addressing attendees of the vigil.

Provincial Security Minister Javier Alonso urged attendees to maintain an atmosphere of "respect, affection, and recognition." He stressed the importance of good coexistence, dialogue, and patience for everyone participating in the farewell. Alonso mentioned that the family requested the Parque Dominico venue due to its accessibility, and the plan was developed in collaboration with them.

We were in constant dialogue with the family, who asked us to do it in this place because of the access routes and ease for the people. We built this idea with them and this situation came about.

โ€” Javier AlonsoExplaining the choice of venue for the vigil.

Alonso anticipates a "prolonged" duration for the public's farewell. The operation involves not only police but also health workers, Civil Defense, firefighters, and numerous volunteers. The minister reiterated the family's desire for the public to bid farewell to Solari, emphasizing that the event should be conducted with respect and serve as a peaceful tribute. Music, reminiscent of Solari's performances, will be part of the ceremony.

The Parque Dominico was chosen for its ample space, described as approximately 680 by 300 meters, offering comfort and security. Its location on Avenida Mitre, a wide thoroughfare with multiple lanes and boulevards, facilitates access and crowd management.

There is an idea from the family that the people can say goodbye to 'Indio'. The important thing is that we do this with respect and that it is a peaceful tribute.
