The five officials who are suspended include the police, civil defense employees and those responsible for planning and preparation.

Guadalupe Murguía, Interior Minister of Queretaro, said on Sunday that the company responsible for security at the arena will also have its contract terminated.

Saturday's meeting between Queretaro and Atlas in the Mexican top league was interrupted after an hour of play when rival supporters collided in the stands.

Several spectators, including families with children, tried to escape the commotion while the quarrels continued out on the field, forcing the players to take cover.

26 people were injured, three of them seriously.

The incident has been condemned by both the Mexican Football Association and Fifa - and the Mexican Football Association decided to postpone all matches scheduled to be played on Sunday.

According to AFP, away supporters are now also not allowed to go to matches, due to Saturday's scenes.
