The case of the murder of Colombian surgeon Edwin Arrieta on the Thai island of Koh Phangan has taken an even darker turn with the revelation of the alleged movements of Daniel Sancho Bronchalo, son of actor Rodolfo Sancho, after committing the crime. Sources close to the case indicate that Arrieta was Sancho’s partner, and jealousy could have been the motive behind this tragic event.
According to sources close to the case, Sancho was seen attending a “Full Moon Party” shortly after having murdered and dismembered Arrieta.
After what the authorities believe was the fatal encounter with Edwin Arrieta Arteaga in the hotel room they shared, Daniel Sancho allegedly decided to join one of the famous full moon parties on the island. These events, known for their debauchery and crowds of young people from all over the world, took place on one of Koh Phangan’s beaches.
Sancho’s unusual conduct did not end there. After participating in the festivity, the Spaniard went to the local police station to report the disappearance of his partner. It was at that moment that the police began to question Sancho, and parts of the Colombian surgeon’s body had already been found in a landfill on the island.
Since Friday, authorities have carried out extensive searches at the hotel where Sancho and Arrieta had shared a room, looking for more evidence that could shed light on the crime. In particular, the head of the victim is being sought, which has not yet been found.
The case is still ongoing, and next Monday a judge is expected to review the evidence presented by the police to decide whether to file a formal charge against Daniel Sancho for the murder of Edwin Arrieta Arteaga in Koh Phangan, Thailand.
