A series of incidents and disturbances in the vicinity of the place forced the authority to end the funeral 3 hours ahead of schedule.
Diego Armando Maradona’s funeral ended at the Casa Rosada, in Argentina, hours ahead of schedule, due to a series of incidents and disturbances in the vicinity of the place.
The farewell to the greatest popular idol of Argentines got out of control and the government decided to close the wake shortly before 4 in the afternoon, local time, when it had been postponed to 7 at night.
The footballer’s body was taken to the Bella Vista cemetery.
In the midst of the incidents, the organizers removed the coffin from the place where it was and took it to the Hall of the Native Peoples.
Anyway, many people, scared, left the place, according to the Olé newspaper, when the riots began.
For a few minutes the doors of the Government House were closed due to the increase in tension in the surroundings.
On the night of last Wednesday (25) an autopsy was carried out on Diego Maradona’s body. According to information from the Argentine newspaper ClarÃn, the cause of death was identified as “acute heart failure in a patient with dilated cardiomyopathy.”
The autopsy also reports that the cardiorespiratory arrest was caused by acute edema in the lung. The examination was carried out at the San Fernando Hospital in Buenos Aires.
According to the publication, Maradona’s family asked specialists not to enter the procedure room with cell phones to avoid filtering photos of the former player’s body.
The last person to see Maradona alive was his nephew Jonatan Esposito, according to a note released by the Prosecutor’s Office.
