POLICE in Bulawayo yesterday issued a stern warning to would-be hooligans ahead of the Highlanders-Dynamos encounter at Barbourfields Stadium on Sunday, saying they would clamp down on any riotous behaviour.
Bulawayo police spokesperson Inspector Precious Simango said they will not tolerate any uncouth behaviour in and around the stadium.
"Our message has always been clear that we don't tolerate violence. Would-be offenders are warned against causing chaos in and outside the stadium as we'll be there in full force. We want people to enjoy football and head back to their respective places without any disturbance," said Inspector Simango.
The warning comes a day after Dynamos president Kenny Mubaiwa wrote to the Premier Soccer League threatening not to fulfil the much anticipated encounter if there are no security guarantees for his team.
Mubaiwa's statements are likely to cause alarm and despondency among fans and the PSL, who have been on a massive anti-hooliganism campaign.
