Lima 1964: The world's worst stadium disaster

The world's worst stadium disaster occurred exactly 50 years ago in the Peruvian capital Lima. More than 300 people died - but the full story has never been told, and possibly never will be.

"The police didn't let their dogs loose but they did let them tear his clothes off," recalls Hector Chumpitaz, one of Peru's football legends, who was playing at the time and saw the tragedy beginning to unfold.

The story is too old to be commented.
