A friendly football match at a private pitch turned violent, resulting in a broken tooth and a 0.5% permanent disability for one of the goalkeepers involved. The incident, which began as a verbal altercation between two goalkeepers, escalated into a brawl involving several individuals.

Three defendants appeared before the High Criminal Court, denying the charges against them. The court adjourned the case until November 3rd for further investigation and responses. The charges allege that the first defendant assaulted the victim, causing a 0.5% permanent disability without intent to do so.

The second and third defendants are accused of assault resulting in injuries that did not cause illness or incapacity for more than 20 days.
