The Ministry of Internal Affairs sent a letter to the Egyptian FA, informing the football governing body of the new policy and procedures to secure league matches.

Clubs and stadiums officials will be responsible for searching spectators to make sure they don't have weapons or banned fireworks.

They should also ensure the safety of the players, coaching staffs, referees, linesmen and match commissioners.

FIFA's regulations stipulate that the host club are fully responsible for the security measures on the pitch and in the stands as well.

On the other hand, the police's new role during matches is to make sure that no one would sneak into venues.

The league has been stopped since the 25-January Revolution, which resulted in the overthrow of ex-president Hosni Mubarak on 11 February.

The competition is to restart on Wednesday.

The league was set to be cancelled after thousands of Zamalek's fans invaded the Cairo Stadium pitch in the dying minutes of a Champions League game with Club Africain on 2 April.

The massive free-for-all saw several Africain players and Algerian referee Mohamed Maknouz assaulted. Security personnel were quite helpless amid the turmoil.

However, the Egyptian authorities eventually gave the FA the green light to resume the league.
