Maradona accuses ex of theft, seeks arrest

FOOTBALL legend Diego Maradona, who has been a commentator at the World Cup in Brazil, is seeking the arrest of an ex-girlfriend he accuses of stealing.

The Argentine footballer, 53, whose personal life has not been short on drama, charges that Rocio Oliva, 22, made off with items including watches and diamond earrings. “She may be arrested anywhere. We have asked for an international arrest warrant. The prosecutor should pass the order on to Interpol,” Maradona attorney Matias Morla told America TV.

Maradona travelled to Dubai, where he lived with Oliva, to file the suit in the country where he was hired as a sports promoter. A footballer herself, Oliva is in Argentina and denies the allegations. She has charged that Maradona struck her.
