{by} Thesun.co.uk

THE daughter of Diego Maradona has broken down in tears after claiming her family live in fear of the mafia.

Dalma Maradona, 37, called for justice ahead of a trial into the Argentine legend's death in 2020.

Maradona died after suffering a fatal heart attack at his Buenos Aires home almost five years ago.

His family have alleged negligence by his medical practitioners contributed to his death.

Maradona's cause of death was officially listed as "acute pulmonary edema secondary to exacerbated chronic heart failure".

But in an astonishing interview ahead of the trial on March 11, Dalma broke down as she begged for people to "know the truth."

A tearful Dalma told Angel Responde show on Bondi Live: "My mother is worried because she is afraid.

"Afraid of the mafia, of those who control everything, have money and power.

"But I don't care. I know who I am up against, but I cannot remain silent. We need people to know the truth.

"My mother tells me all the time, 'Shut up, don't say anything, I'm scared', but I can't. I owe it to him."

An inquest in 2021 into Maradona's death concluded his medical team acted in an "inappropriate, deficient and reckless manner".

Over a year later, it was announced eight doctors and nurses would go on trial, with proceedings finally getting underway on March 11.

Maradona battled drugs and alcohol addiction during his lifetime, as well as undergoing brain surgery in 2020.

But the inquest claimed he would have stood a "better chance of survival" had he received "adequate medical care".

The medical team on trial face up to 25 years in jail if convicted.

Maradona's neurosurgeon Leopoldo Luque and psychiatrist Agustina Cosachov are in the dock over the World Cup winner's death.

They are joined by nurses Ricardo Omar Almiron, Mariano Perroni and Dahiana Gisela, as well as psychologists Carlos Diaz and Nancy Forlini.

The eight also includes Maradona's psychiatrist Agustina Cosachov.

Mr Cosachov’s lawyer said last April: "There could have been two causes - one natural and the other, a product of the ingestion of a toxic substance."
