Armed assailants murder rowdy-sheeter at Bangalore Football Stadium before match

KSFA ‘A’ division women’s football league postponed

A rowdy-sheeter was murdered on Sunday evening on the premises of the Bangalore Football Stadium (BFS), causing panic among spectators who had come to watch a match scheduled for the day and among the players who were about to enter the field. In front of eye-witnesses, a group of armed men chased the victim, a habitual offender, onto the pitch, followed him into the referees’ room where he attempted to lock himself, and hacked him to death. Following this attack, the KSFA ‘A’ division women’s football league was postponed.
