Swiss Medical, an Argentine health insurance company, has acknowledged that medical records submitted during the ongoing trial regarding the death of football icon Diego Maradona were incorrectly attributed. The company confirmed in a letter that the tests released to a medical commission actually belonged to the athlete's father, who shared the same name.
Diego Maradona passed away from heart failure and acute pulmonary edema two weeks after undergoing surgery for a brain clot. The error regarding the medical documentation represents a significant development in the legal proceedings surrounding his death.
