October 3 – A court in Argentina has authorised plans for the relocation on “humanitarian and emotional” grounds of Diego Maradona’s remains from a private cemetery so they can be placed at a public mausoleum under construction in Buenos Aires.
The court issued the ruling at the request of Maradona’s children. The 1986 World Cup winner died aged 60 in 2020 and his body was buried at the Jardín de Bella Vista cemetery, about 50 kilometers northwest of Buenos Aires.
His children announced last year they wanted to move Maradona’s remains to a public mausoleum so that fans could pay their respects in person.
“We always knew that his place was with the people, but we also understood that all the security guarantees were a priority,” Dalma Maradona, one of the daughters of the Argentine great, said on social media. “What we want is for those who love him to be able to go and show him their love, leave him some daisies.”
Eight people, including doctors and nurses, are still set to stand trial for their alleged roles in Maradona’s death due to a cardiorespiratory arrest.
