A new phase of the trial investigating the death of Argentine football legend Diego Maradona has begun. The hearing resumed on Tuesday after the previous proceedings were halted due to controversy involving a judge. Maradona died shortly after returning home from brain surgery, and allegations were made that medical negligence led to his death. Following his death in November 2020, a seven-member medical team was charged and brought before the court.
The earlier trial, which lasted two and a half months, was abruptly stopped and later annulled in May 2025 after it emerged that a judge, Julieta Makinthakh, had participated in a documentary related to the case, violating judicial ethics. She was subsequently impeached. The restarted trial will hear testimony from at least 120 witnesses as the court examines the extent of responsibility borne by Maradona’s medical team.
The accused include doctors, a psychologist, and nurses who oversaw Maradona’s care after his hospital discharge. If found guilty, they could face prison sentences ranging from eight to twenty-five years. The case has once again drawn global attention as the football world awaits justice.
