Gianinna Maradona, daughter of the iconic footballer Diego Maradona, testified in court that the doctors responsible for her father's care manipulated her family during his final days. Maradona passed away on November 25, 2020, from cardiac arrest at his home in Dique Luján, Buenos Aires Province. The ongoing trial involves a seven-member medical team accused of gross negligence, with potential prison sentences of eight to 25 years if found guilty of homicide with possible intent. Gianinna claimed that doctors convinced the family that Maradona could recover at home, presenting it as a viable option despite his serious health condition. The trial centers on whether this decision endangered Maradona's life, as he had been recovering from surgery for a brain clot. The defendants argue that he died from natural causes, specifically heart failure and acute pulmonary oedema, two weeks after the operation.
