Lawyers representing Indonesia stadium victims call for fresh charges

CNA – Lawyers representing some of the victims of a deadly stadium stampede in Indonesia are calling for new charges against police officers on duty when 135 people died in one of the world’s worst football disasters.

This comes days after an Indonesian district court acquitted two senior police officers while another officer was given an 18-month prison sentence for his involvement in the October 1, 2002 incident at Kanjuruhan Stadium in the city of Malang.
