Details

Persib as the host announced that they were only providing 15,000 tickets, per local police recommendation for safety, for the match against Persebaya at 20:30 UTC+7, 17 June 2022. Gelora Bandung Lautan Api Stadium has a maximum capacity of 38,000. However, at the time, the stadium was full of supporters from both teams.[1] Bonekmania, Persebaya supporters, came to Bandung in large numbers, although they were only given a 1,500 quota by the host.[2] Some of them entered the arena without tickets. Supporters who did not have tickets entered the arena by climbing the fence and stadium walls to the second floor,[3] even some of the entrance gates were rammed. The police estimated that 45,000 supporters from both teams were in the stadium, damaging eight entrance gates that had been closed.[1]

At 19:00, before the match started, the entrance gates were closed and there were still many spectators outside the stadium who were forced to go inside. Two victims were in the crowd that forced their way into the stadium, which was full long before the match started. The police also stated that it was possible that both victims fell after getting being asphyxiated, and got trampled down by other supporters.[4]

After they were successfully pulled out, they received medical assistance and were then rushed to Sartika Asih Hospital, but both died in the hospital.

Victims

Ahmad Solihin, a 29-year-old resident of Bandung, and Sofiana Yusuf, a 20-year-old resident of Bogor, were the two people killed in the stampede.[5]

Aftermath

As the investigation started, match officials found fake officials ID cards that might grant people who wore it access to the stadium.[8] Police lined the area and started the investigation after the incident.[9] Bobotoh accused the match officials of terrible crowd management as the cause of the incident.
