J S Kabylie lost the home match 2 - 1, even though the Cameroonian striker Ebosse, scored the only goal of his team.
A day after the unfortunate incident, the Algerian Football Federation decided after a meeting, to postpone the league.
A statement from the Association said that it was, ''in protest at the irresponsible actions of certain fanatics and hooligans, who resorted to violence in the stadiums, which has reached an unacceptable level.''

It went further to say, that the organisation is also considering to expel whichever club, that was at fault in the incident, in all competitions. But that is likely to be after the investigation
The Algerian Ministry of Interior, has ordered an indept investigation into the incident, that caused the death of Albert Ebosse, and football hooliganism in the country.
The Football Federation announced that the slained player's family, will be given $100,000, and all the money he could've earned, during the period of his contract.
In addition to this, all the players of his club - J S Kabylie, will each donate one month salary to the family of Ebosse.
Even though all these monetry gestures, cannot be equated to the life of the unfortunate player, it will go a long way to reduce the financial burden, that the family may suffer as a result of his untimely death.
I hope that the Algerian government and the Football Federation, will after the inquiry, set up a mechanism that will deter football fans, from resorting to hooliganism, whenever their football team lose a match.
