A Tottenham fan was banned from attending soccer matches for three years on Tuesday for making gestures mocking the Hillsborough disaster during a Premier League game against Liverpool.
Kieron Darlow, a 25-year-old man from Welwyn, north of London, made the gestures at a game between the teams at Anfield on April 30, British prosecutors said.
바카라Darlow was laughing and those who challenged him said he caused real alarm and distress,바카라 the Crown Prosecution Service said.
Darlow바카라s ban also prevents him from being in the vicinity of stadiums.
바카라Darlow admitted making a gesture towards the Liverpool fans and that this was a reference to the Hillsborough disaster,바카라 prosecutor Andrew Page said. 바카라He admitted that this was to suggest that fans without tickets had pushed forward in the tragedy and had been partly to blame for the crush that led to so many deaths.
바카라He accepted at court that it was his intention that Liverpool fans should see this and that it would cause them harassment, alarm and distress. He admitted that his behavior was unacceptable and regrets his actions.바카라
Ninety-seven Liverpool fans died as a result of a crush at Hillsborough in 1989, making it Britain바카라s worst sporting disaster.
A jury at an inquest ruled in 2016 that the fans were unlawfully killed amid a number of police errors.
