Belgian police have arrested Moroccan international Mehdi Carcela, the Belgian footballer, Standard de Liege, for his participation in a match with his colleagues, press reports said Thursday.
According to the Moroccan newspaper “Hespress”, Carcela broke the quarantine with six of his team mates, as they fought a match with third-party RFC Liege players.
The match took place in a small stadium out of sight, before dozens of fans arrived to follow the meeting, which necessitated the intervention of security.
According to the Moroccan newspaper, the police investigated Carcela and his colleagues, and put them on probation pending a decision against them after violating the quarantine and contributing to the gathering of the masses, which violates the precautionary laws set by the Belgian government to limit the spread of the Corona epidemic.
The newspaper added that the police have informed the President of the Standard Club de Liege of the identity of the players involved, and it is expected to issue financial penalties against Carcela and his team mates.
