A stampede at a football stadium in Indonesia has killed at least 125 people and injured more than 320 after police sought to quell violence on the field, authorities said yesterday, in one of the world’s worst stadium disasters.
The death toll from an Indonesian football riot that turned into a stampede was revised down to 125 on Sunday due to double counting, an official told local media.
