(CNN) — A judge has stepped down from the criminal proceedings regarding the death of Argentine footballer Diego Armando Maradona.
An Argentine court had removed the judge, Julieta Makintach, after one of the defendants in the Maradona trial requested her disqualification due to a possible lack of impartiality and for allegedly authorizing the filming of a documentary during court hearings.
Makintach accepted the court’s disqualification.
In a previous hearing, she had stated that her brother is a partner at the production company mentioned in the case, but it had nothing to do with a potential documentary about Maradona.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
