Gor Fans
After a 2-0 win over Western Stima yesterday at City Stadium, Gormhia diehard fans, who are known for their aggressive way of celebrating are said to have engaged in a dreadful fight with Muthurwa hawkers as they headed home.

A Gormahia fan is feared dead after being beaten by hawkers at the Muthurwa Market on Landhies road.

Caught in the scuffle were vehicles passing along Muthurwa which were stoned and another fan is said to have been beaten mercilessly by the hawkers.

Gor Mahia Vice Chairman Faiz Ochieng confirmed the incident and called on the government to guarantee safety for fans.

“It is very disappointing that this issue of fans being attacked at Muthurwa is fast becoming a big menace. I personally wrote a letter to the inspector General of Police requesting that Police provide ample security to our fans after matches.” He said.
 
Faiz said that during the confrontation, one unidentified fan was killed, “There was a confrontation and we have lost a life in the process.”
