Hooligans charged for Saturday's Warsaw football riots

About 70 of the accused will face charges of assaulting police officers, 30 for destroying property, while 20 will be charged for using false tickets to get into the game. "The time for executing law has come," said Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro. On Monday, Legia Warsaw announced it was not responsible for the behavior of its fans. The acting mayor of Warsaw Mirosław Kochalski announced that the capital city will try to recollect the money for destroyed property from the hooligans and advised that shop and restaurant owners should do the same. Kochalski also proposed that the stadium should be closed for football fans until the end of 2006. (Rzeczpospolita, pp. A1, A4) M.M..
