Seven members of the medical team responsible for caring for Diego Maradona have been charged with negligence that led to his death during his recovery period after undergoing surgery to remove a brain blood clot. The prosecution is seeking up to 12 years in prison for the doctors, accusing them of "disorganized conduct" and neglecting the fundamental principles of healthcare, which left Maradona helpless and abandoned to his fate. Evidence indicates the absence of essential medical equipment such as a defibrillator and hospital beds, and warning signs of his deteriorating condition were clear before his death—caused by heart failure and severe pulmonary edema—two weeks after the surgery. Meanwhile, the accused deny any responsibility. A verdict is expected to be announced after closing arguments, which may last around two weeks.
