Second nurse to face questions over Diego Maradona’s death

Seven people are accused of failing to provide adequate care to the football icon before his death in November last year.

A second former nurse of Diego Maradona will be questioned in Argentina on Wednesday, as part of a probe into whether medical staff neglected to provide adequate care to the global football icon before he died last year. Dahiana Gisela Madrid, 36, is one of the seven people under investigation for manslaughter after a board of experts looking into Maradona’s death found he was abandoned to his fate for a “prolonged, agonising period”. Maradona, who led Argentina to the World Cup triumph in 1986 and was celebrated by football fans around the world, died in November at age 60 after suffering a heart attack.
