Fikri Harish and Wahyoe Boediwardhana (The Jakarta Post) Jakarta/Malang   ●   Mon, October 3, 2022 At least 125 people were killed, and a hundred more were injured, in a stampede after a soccer match in Malang regency, East Java, on Saturday night, in Indonesia's worst-ever stadium incident. Tens of thousands of fans rushed out of the stadium when police fired tear gas, a move that critics have deemed excessive and the main cause of the stampede. The deadly incident took place after home team Arema FC lost 3-2 in a top league Liga 1 match against their regional rival, Persebaya Surabaya, at the Kanjuruhan Stadium.
