With the highly anticipated India vs New Zealand Champions Trophy final set to take place on March 9 in Dubai, local authorities have issued a stern warning to fans attending the match. The Dubai Police have outlined strict regulations, imposing hefty fines ranging from Rs 3,80,000 to Rs 2,285,000 (AED 5,000 to AED 30,000) for any violations.
This warning comes after a fan stormed the field during India’s semi-final clash against Australia, hugging KL Rahul after he sealed the win with a six. Authorities have now reinforced security measures to prevent similar incidents, ensuring a safe and smooth match experience.
Fans have been explicitly cautioned against bringing dangerous materials, fireworks, or flammable substances into the stadium, as severe penalties will be enforced for any breaches. Additionally, any acts of racism, violence, or political demonstrations will be dealt with strictly to maintain order and integrity at the event.
Fines for disruptive behavior
Authorities have also warned that individuals caught throwing objects at players could face fines ranging from Rs 761,000 to Rs 2,285,000 (AED 10,000 to AED 30,000).
The Dubai Police are committed to ensuring a safe and enjoyable atmosphere for all spectators. With a massive crowd expected, officials urge fans to adhere to stadium rules and respect the game. Any disruptions could lead to legal consequences, potentially tarnishing the excitement of the final.
As both India and New Zealand compete for the Champions Trophy title, authorities are emphasizing the importance of sportsmanship and discipline among spectators to ensure an incident-free and memorable match.
