It was an announcement that shocked the whole world: on November 25, 2020, Diego Maradona died at the age of 60 from a heart attack. Nothing extraordinary at first glance but the circumstances surrounding his death are resurfacing today. Next March, the trial of doctors and nurses charged with homicide will take place? If convicted, they will receive a prison sentence of 25 years. Mariano Israelit does not hide his anger over the death of his brother in an interview with the Mirror where he affirms that Maradona would still be alive today if he had received the necessary care. I saw with my own eyes the treatment he was going through. This was simply unacceptable in many ways. He testified for more than 9 hours for the investigation and denounced the actions of the medical team.
90 million dollars missing
The other scandal surrounding the death of El Pibe de Oro lies behind the fortune of the football icon. His adventures at Boca Juniors, Barcelona and Naples made him famous and rich. A big party animal, he benefited from his notoriety all his life. But his friend deplores a huge theft during his end of life. He is convinced that someone stole Maradona's millions. “The money is still missing: it is more than 90 million dollars [70 millions de livres sterling].” Today, according to his manager's lawyer, only $10 million remains. In this case, all the accused plead innocent and Mariano believes that no one will go to prison after the trial.
