Albert Ebossé Death

On 23 August 2014, during the second day of the championship, the JS Kabylie lost 2-1 to the USM Alger despite a goal by Albert Ebossé from a penalty in the 27th minute. After the match, as he prepared to return to the locker room, Albert Ebossé was hit on the head by a stone thrown from the stands by supporters of the JS Kabylie and died in hospital as a result of a Traumatic brain injury.[1] The same day, the Minister of the Algerian Interior Tayeb Belaiz requested an investigation![2]
Therefore, the Professional Football League ordered the closure of the Stade 1er Novembre 1954 until further notice.[3] The next day, the Federation postponed games scheduled on 29 and 30 August 2014 to pay tribute to Albert Ebossé, the player who died, and to protest against the irresponsible actions of some fanatics and hooligans that sustain violence in stadiums and has reached unacceptable proportions.[4]
The governing body also decided that US$100,000 would be given to Ebosse's family, plus the amount he would have earned over the period of his contract. In addition, JS Kabylie's players would each donate a month's salary.[4]
The first witnesses cited bleeding either in the carotid artery or the skull, which resulted in a hemorrhagic shock that was fatal. The pathologist who performed the autopsy noted a Traumatic brain injury and a wound (hemorrhagic) to the skull. These elements suggest the conclusion that stoning was the direct cause of death. But no one disputes that the projectiles were thrown from the stands by supporters of JSK, which aggravates the responsibility of the club in any way responsible for the overall security of the stadium and surrounding areas.
On 25 August 2014, the president of JSK, Mohand Cherif Hannachi, stated that according to the club's doctors, Albert Ebossé died of a heart attack caused by a faint and not a Traumatic brain injury, mainly because of the efforts made during the high-level game. This suggests that death would be coincidental and unrelated to incidents and the club's liability.[5] Finally, one day after his death, the Public Prosecutor's Office of Tizi Ouzou said the autopsy proved that the player was killed by a projectile.[6]
On 7 September 2014, the Algerian Ministry of Sports revealed that the sharp object that caused the death of the player was a sharp piece of Slate.[7] When the league resumed on Week 3 starting 12 September 2014, all matches on that week were preceded with a minute of silence in memory of Bodjongo.[8][9]
On 13 December 2014, the site Afrik.com revealed that the autopsy conducted by Drs André Moune and Fabien Fouda in mid-September in Cameroon questioned the official thesis. According to the autopsy, Ebossé reportedly died following a brutal attack with multiple cranial traumas. The doctor of the Cameroon family believes that there was an attempt at concealment in the autopsies performed earlier. When asked by the AFP, Dr. Moune believes Ebossé was killed during a fight in the locker room. Dislocation of the left shoulder revealed a struggle during which Ebossé was held, his left arm was pulled back, and, struggling, his shoulder was dislocated. The Cameroonian player would then have been hit with a club head because his skull was badly damaged and his cervical vertebrae. Pictures of the remains were given to the Kabyle press, which concluded that Albert Ebossé was the victim of a police blunder. According to the website "Kabyle news agency", the existence of a projectile thrown from the stands would simply be called into question. Nevertheless, the findings of the medical autopsy in Cameroon (baton) do not prevent the conclusions of the Algerian autopsy (several heavy and sharp projectiles).
On 19 December 2014, an investigation was opened by the Algerian Justice.[10] In February 2016, Hugo Broos said that the player was murdered by supporters of JSK.[11] On 26 February 2016, the player's agent, Leo Emassi Raouf, revealed in an interview with the sports daily Competition that Ébossé and Broos disagreed.[12]
