AJ Ahmed, Technology Coordinator for Sight Concern and Liverpool Football fan speaks to BBC Radio Four’s program In Touch about how he and another visually impaired fan got caught up in the frightening events at the Champion’s League Final in Paris on Saturday night.
Despite arriving early and then finding their way to a dedicated disabled area, they were still caught up in the chaotic and dangerous scenes, including the use of tear gas, worse still the dedicated audio commentary equipment, that could also have given them vital information, was not available.
