An Argentine court started on Tuesday its trial of seven healthcare professionals accused of negligence in the death of soccer great Diego Maradona, at age 60.
Maradona, aged 60, was under the care of the seven when he had a cardiac arrest in a house outside Buenos Aires on 25 November 2020.
Three judges will decide whether those charged, including a neurosurgeon, a psychiatrist and several medical staffers, are guilty of manslaughter. The maximum jail time for those sentenced is 25 years.
