Diego Maradona’s Doctor Denies Responsibility For His Death As Argentine Officials Search Home

Argentine justice officials seized medical files from the doctor of Diego Maradona on Sunday as part of an investigation into his death.

The search order was requested by prosecutors in the affluent Buenos Aires suburb San Isidro and signed by a local judge, according to a statement issued by the prosecutor’s office.

Former Argentina, Barcelona and Napoli star Maradona died at age 60 on Wednesday after a heart attack – and his doctor Leopoldo Luque has said he is not responsible for his death.

“They took the clinical files,” Luque told local television after law enforcement officers searched his home and office. “There was no medical error.”
