Maradona Case: Wrong Kidney Tests Used

Swiss Medical confirmed in a letter seen by AFP that the tests shown in court were mistakenly filed under Diego Armando Maradona's name when they actually belonged to his father, Diego Salustiano Maradona, who died in 2015. The court paused the case for a week to clarify this error after defense attorneys raised doubts about the kidney evidence.

The trial, which began in April, involves seven people including Maradona's personal doctor and nurses who face up to 25 years in prison on charges of gross negligence in connection with the football icon's death at age 60. The case is expected to resume Thursday and could continue until September. blablasex.es
