The reason why 127 people died in the riot that ended the Arema FC vs Persebaya Surabaya match will be discussed in this article. The riot broke out shortly after the referee blew the whistle to mark the end of the match, in which Persebaya Surabaya won 3-2 over Arema FC at the Kanjuruhan Stadium, Kepanjeng, Malang, Saturday, October 1, 2022 at night WIB.

So, what causes the number of people who died? This happened due to the outbreak of riots after tear gas was fired to dispel thousands of Aremania who wanted to attack the field.

The audience went down to the center of the field, and tried to find the players to ask why they lost, or vent. Therefore, security is taking preventive measures, and making diversions so that they do not enter the field," said East Java Police Chief Inspector General Nico Afinta while at the Malang Police Headquarters, early Sunday (2/10/2022).

Nico said that at that time his team tried to give an appeal in a persuasive way. However, it didn't work. As a result, the masses increasingly violent attack and damage police cars.

"Prevention efforts were carried out until tear gas was applied, because it had damaged the car (police) and finally tear gas was sprayed," he said again.
