Four arrested over India cricket stadium crush

Police in India have arrested at least four people in connection with the fatal crowd crush that took place in the southern city of Bengaluru earlier this week.

Axar.az reports, citing BBC, on Wednesday, 11 people were killed when tens of thousands gathered outside a cricket stadium to celebrate the cricket league Royal Challengers Bengaluru's (RCB) historic Indian Premier League (IPL) victory.

Those arrested include personnel of RCB and the event management company which organised the celebrations.

Five senior police officers, including the city's police chief, have been suspended for "negligence and irresponsibility" by the government.

A police official said Hindi that more arrests are expected as the investigation continues.
