A MASTER'S student who threw a flare during a Manchester United match, leaving a disabled woman in the crowd needing urgent first aid, has been banned from all football grounds for three years.
Amar Raithatha, 26, from Leicester, bought three flares from Amazon and travelled up to Manchester for Leicester City's game against United in April.
He hid one of them and got into the stadium, later throwing it during the match.
A court heard the blue smoke flare was launched towards a lower tier area of the ground after Leicester scored.
It landed near to the feet of a 69-yearold woman sitting in a section for supporters with disabilities.
