Diego Maradona died in 2020 at the age of 60
Four years after the death of the Argentine football legend Diego Maradona, seven people in the medical field are tried starting March 11, 2025, in San Isidro, in Buenos Aires, being accused of negligence that would have caused the death of the former world champion.
More than 100 witnesses, including members of the family of Maradona and doctors who have taken care of it over the years, will be heard during the four-month process. New information from Maradona’s death, details provided by Dr. Carlos Cassinelli, one of the doctors who performed his autopsy, appeared.
The Argentine champion died with edema, dehydration and liquid in the abdomen, heart and lungs due to liver failure. Jana Maradona, one of the daughters of the former footballer, did not want to follow the images from the trial on Tuesday, in which he was shown with the Leopoldo Luque finger, Diez’s personal doctor and one of the main defendants.
Fernando Burlando, Maradona’s daughter’s lawyer, pointed out: “From what turned out, his agony did not last 12 hours, but much more, began at least on November 18, 7 days before his death, which occurred on November 25, 2020”.
