Eight medical personnel will stand trial for alleged criminal neglect causing Argentine football legend Diego Maradona to die in bed while receiving post-surgery care.
A judge on Wednesday ordered a culpable homicide trial for the eight, who include the footballer`s family doctor and nurses, based on evidence that they had failed to take “action that could have prevented the death” in November 2020.
