Indonesia’s football association: Some gates locked in deadly crush
Delays in unlocking the gates at an Indonesian football stadium after violence broke out at the end of a match contributed to a disaster in which at least 131 people died, the national football association said on Tuesday.
The Football Association of Indonesia said it has permanently banned the chief executive and security co-ordinator of the team that hosted Saturday’s match, Arema FC, for failing to secure the field and promptly issue a command to unlock the gates.
