The Executive Committee has ordered the temporary closure of the Robert Mensah Stadium in Cape Coast with immediate effect. This follows the unfortunate incident which nearly claimed the lives of the match officials and the Operational Commander of the Police Service from the mob action after the GLO Premier League match between Dwarfs and Aduana played on Sunday, 11th March, 2012. This decision, according an Executive Committee Statement, is in accordance with Article 15 (2) of the GFA Regulations which states that the GFA may order the closure of any league centre where the safety of Clubs, match officials or spectators cannot be guaranteed. The statement said they are "asking the Premier League Board to determine the venue for the Club’s subsequent home matches in accordance with the provisions of Article 15 (3) of the Regulations. This decision is without prejudice to a determination of the case by the Disciplinary Committee." Meanwhile, the Disciplinary Committee has been charged to hear the case in accordance with the Regulations of the FA.
