What happened inside his body in the last hours, what happened outside with the care he should receive and what decisions were made by the professionals who were in charge of the health of the greatest legend in football history.

The death of Diego Armando Maradona (60), which occurred just a week ago, already had several chapters in the courts and the investigators are going in that direction.

The raids on Tuesday in the office and home of psychiatrist Agustina Cosachov (35) ratified the line followed by the San Isidro team of prosecutors, which also raided the neurosurgeon Leopoldo Luque (39) on Sunday.

Maradona's medical history, documentation and cell phones were seized from the two doctors.

This Wednesday the decision of the Judge of Guarantees No. 2 of San Isidro, Orlando Díaz, to authorize the analysis of these four telephones was known.

This is one of the key insights that will allow us to know what happened around

Ten

before his death in the private neighborhood of San Andrés de Tigre, what calls or messages the professionals exchanged in relation to their health and complete the timeline in detail which led to the death of Maradona.

“There are no elements in the case that lead to suspect an arrest.

The doctor is in law from day one.

The prosecutor ordered the search, with which his status in the case changed, now he is a person who is being investigated, "said the psychiatrist's lawyer, Vadim Mischanchuk at the door of the prosecution.

In addition, he recognized that the imputation of the professional is a concrete possibility.

And he explained that they voluntarily "handed over cell phone and computer passwords and passwords so that they can access as quickly as possible."

The other key piece that is in the sights of Justice is the "stage" where the star died.

The famous playroom located on the ground floor of the house in lot 45, "adapted" for home hospitalization and with a chemical toilet next to it.

The suspicion is that it was not the right place for the recovery of the former soccer player and DT, recently operated, with heart problems and in treatment of his addiction to alcohol.

Among what happened there is the situation with the nurse Dahiana Gisela Madrid (36), a member of the staff of the company “Medidom” and who at 6.30 on November 25 had taken the turn to take care of Diego.

Madrid declared that he had stopped attending to Maradona because he had fired her.

On Tuesday there were also chats of the group of nurses about what happened in the last hours around the playroom where Maradona was interned.

Furthermore, the other side of that chronology will be determined by what Maradona's body "says" through the expertise and samples taken during the autopsy.

This Wednesday the laboratory studies began at the headquarters of the Scientific Police of La Plata, in the middle of a fairly rigorous security operation that included the presence of the Infantry and the Motorized Police.

Benavídez prosecutor Laura Capra and San Isidro Deputy Attorney General Cosme Iribarren supervised the opening of the samples and the chain of custody.

While the lawyers who are part of the case also witnessed the expertise.

What was known is that the toxicological tests, which will tell what substances were in Maradona's blood and urine at the time of his death, will

be known in about 10 days.

In addition to the examinations in which they will seek to know what medications the Ten had consumed, as well as alcohol or some other type of drug, the researchers will also perform histopathological studies, which are those that microscopically analyze the organs and tissues to see if there were illness or injury.

“Within 10 days we could have the first results on blood and urine.

The other will take a little longer, ”a judicial source told

Télam

.

Maradona's heart will be observed in detail.

During the autopsy, it was completely extracted and the first results showed that Diego had a "dilated cardiomyopathy" and weighed 503 grams.

That is, twice as large as a normal one.

One of the points that the professionals requested is to analyze the cardiac “conduction system”, that is, the structures from which the electrical stimulus that allows the heart to contract is produced and transmitted.

"We believe that Diego did not die from a clinical question, but died a

natural death due to abandonment of a person, at least,

" said lawyer Mario Baudry, who represents Dieguito Fernando Maradona, the son that the idol had as a result of their relationship with Verónica Ojeda, current partner of Sergio Berni's former official in the Buenos Aires Ministry of Security.

Baudry anticipated that they will begin to ask for "test measures" and pointed to "the responsibility" of the doctors in charge of Maradona.

Meanwhile, a lock of hair and other samples of fluids and tissues were sent to the Forensic Medical Corps, which depends on the Supreme Court of the Nation.

On the other hand, the San Isidro Chamber of Appeals and Guarantees will be the one to decide whether Matías Morla (41), former representative of

Diez

, and Maradona's sisters, can be part of the case as affected individuals.

Judge Díaz had rejected that claim.

At the same time that this Thursday it will be known whether or not the magistrate grants him the prison exemption appeal presented by Julio Rivas, Luque's lawyer, anticipating a possible arrest request by prosecutors that has not yet occurred.
