Beating
Deogan became the first Swede to be killed as a result of football hooliganism. He was beaten at Högalidsparken on Södermalm by AIK supporters. Deogan was a supporter of IFK Göteborg, who had played AIK at Råsunda Stadium on 29 July 2002.{{Cite news|url=http://www.metro.se/se/article/2007/03/21/06/5836-23/index.xml |title=Tonys mördare kan aldrig fällas |access-date=4 May 2022 |archive-date=2007-09-30 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930185353/http://www.metro.se/se/article/2007/03/21/06/5836-23/index.xml |url-status=live|work=Metro}}
A couple of days later he died from injuries he sustained during the brutal beating. Even though the police had several suspects the case never went to trial because of the lack of witnesses. The once high-profile case remains unsolved.{{cite web |last1=Björk |first1=Urban |title=Insider Firman Boys |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ze4EoVEd4TA&t=654s |website=Youtube |date=13 June 2012 |publisher=TV3 |access-date=3 May 2022}}
In 2007, all the case documents disappeared and were burned by the responsible attorney.{{Cite journal|url=https://www.svd.se/a/0c9b6fc5-3364-333c-9e88-436d0ba9090a/mordutredning-om-supporter-forsvann|title=Mordutredning om supporter försvann|date=21 March 2007|accessdate=4 May 2022|newspaper=Svenska Dagbladet}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.sydsvenskan.se/2007-04-26/utredning-om-supporters-dod-kastades|title=Tony Deogan dog efter ett slagsmål mellan supportrar till AIK och IFK Göteborg 2002.
