Indonesia Jails Two Football Match Officials over Stadium Crush
Suko Sutrisno (front-left), a security official, and Abdul Haris (front-right), a match organizer, attend their trial at a courthouse in Surabaya on March 9, 2023. An Indonesian court on March 9 jailed two football match officials for negligence over one of the worst stadium disasters in the sport's history. The crush in October 2022 at a venue in the East Java city of Malang killed 135 people after police fired tear gas into packed stands when supporters invaded the pitch.

Indonesian President Joko Widodo ordered an investigation and pledged to demolish and rebuild the Kanjuruhan Stadium according to FIFA standards.
A task force investigating the crush has called on the head of Indonesia's football association and all the members of its executive committee to resign, but they have refused to do so.
The match was a clash between fierce East Javan rivals Arema FC and Persebaya Surabaya, with Arema losing 3-2.
FIFA head Gianni Infantino in October called the crush "one of the darkest days for football."
