KPL chairman Elly Kalekwa, who just fell short to point an accusing finger on the home team, Gor Mahia, said they will not focus on who was to blame but help in whatever in the investigation process that is being undertaken by the government.

"All participants at the meeting agreed that they would fully cooperate with any inquiries set up by the government, police or other concerned authorities into the circumstances under which the fans died or were injured on Saturday," he said.

Dr. Andrew Sule, the who acted on a few of the victims, some dying in his hands, said 18 people were affected and rushed to hospital with eight dying while the others were treated and released.

At the same time, Gor Mahia Chairman Ambrose Rachiel, absolved his club from blame and quashed any possible link of the deaths to late sale of tickets.

"It must be realized that the victims all had tickets in their hands and were not trying to access the stadium free. The club cannot be blamed for selling the tickets on the match day," he said.

Ticket Masters, who were involved in selling the tickets on behalf of Gor Mahia, confirmed that 25,000 tickets - 3,000 for main stand and 22, 000 for the terraces - were printed. However, only 16,767 tickets were sold in spite of the 35,000-seater stadium having bust through the seams.

"These are numbers we have and when the gate was brought down, several people managed to come in and maybe they were the ones that have the numbers shooting up," said Martin Nkaari of Ticket Masters.
