Overview
- The East Java disciplinary committee issued a lifetime suspension and a 2,500,000‑rupiah fine to Muhammad Hilmi Gimnastiar.
- The sanction stems from a red‑carded flying kick to Firman Nugraha’s chest during a promotion playoff between Putrajaya Pasuruan and Perseta 1970 Tulungagung.
- Nugraha was transported to a hospital, received oxygen and ICU care, and was later reported to be out of life‑threatening danger.
- Putrajaya Pasuruan terminated Gimnastiar’s contract immediately and released a public apology.
- Committee president Samiadji Makin Rahmat said the decision serves as a deterrent to violence as video of the incident spread widely on social media.
