Time to ban PSG from European football?

Tragically, a fan of PSG has been shot dead by a plained-clothed police officer who was attempting to defend a fan of Hapoel Tel Aviv who was reportedly surrounded by 150 PSG fans. PSG had just been beaten 2-4 by the Israeli side.

Fan shot dead

PSG fans have an appalling reputation and had to play home games away from Paris in 2001 (see link below) due crowd problems inside the stadium. The thing is, if it was English fans committing such acts, unquestionally UEFA would have kicked the club out of all European competitions. However, when it's not an English club involved a different set of rules apply. This time something must be done, UEFA needs to act and apply the ultimate sanction and ban PSG from all European competition.
