October 30, 2024
Following the incidents during the APOEL - Anorthosis football match, the Minister of Justice called for the expedited review of two bills against violence in stadiums. The bills aim to hold clubs accountable for their fans' actions and allow alcohol and drug testing. Approval and discussion in Parliament are expected soon as part of the response to violence in sports. The government is focusing on measures to ensure safety at sporting events.
