The medics, facing charges that could lead to imprisonment if convicted, have maintained their innocence, asserting that they provided the best possible care under challenging circumstances.
This case not only highlights the personal tragedy of Maradona's death but also raises broader questions about the responsibilities of medical professionals towards high-profile patients. As the trial progresses, the world watches closely, hoping for justice for one of football's most iconic figures.
