Argentina legal updates: Maradona trial and Silvina Luna investigation
The trial regarding the death of Diego Maradona continues in San Isidro, with the prosecution calling psychiatrist José Luis Covelli and clinician Ramiro Larrea to testify. Defense attorney Vadim Mischanchuk stated that the testimony from medical experts is vital, asserting that the medication prescribed to Maradona was correct and administered in appropriate doses, a claim supported by medical records from both the Ipensa clinic and Olivos.
In a separate legal development, a medical board in Buenos Aires has released a report concerning the death of model Silvina Luna. The report implicates surgeon Aníbal Lotocki, suggesting that the polymethacrylate used in a 2011 aesthetic procedure caused hypercalcemia, which subsequently led to renal failure. The investigation also highlights a lack of adequate medical follow-up by the surgeon, which may have prevented the early detection of the condition.
