Overview

  • The shirt was taken on November 1 from an altar-style display at the Museo de la Industria during the annual El Mes del Diego exhibition.
  • It belongs to a private collector from Villa Carlos Paz who had loaned it to the organizers for public display.
  • Police in Córdoba located the jersey during patrols near Avenida 24 de Septiembre and Viamonte and detained an adult man found with it.
  • The piece is a Newell’s 2008/2009 model bearing Maradona’s inscription “Con cariño, Leproso,” which organizers say carries primarily symbolic value.
  • Organizers said the jersey will be returned to its lender and thanked the community for tips and recordings shared via Instagram and WhatsApp as formal proceedings continue.
