It has been more than a month since Daniel Sancho entered the prison on the Thai island of Samui, where he is awaiting trial for the murder of Colombian surgeon Edwin Arrieta while the Police finalize their investigation, still with several unknowns to be resolved.
Among others, the motive or motive for the crime. It is known that Sancho and Arrieta met online and met in Thailand, where Sancho ended the surgeon’s life. There has been a lot of speculation as to why he did it, and yesterday at Fiesta another hypothesis was launched: a traumatic event that would have changed Daniel Sancho’s life forever.
The program presented by Emma García has continued talking about the most chilling case of recent weeks, emphasizing that the absence of a local lawyer on Thai soil could pose a big problem for the defense, since it is mandatory that the accused be defended by a lawyer from the country.
A lack of local lawyer that joins the change of legal team in Spain – now led by the well-known criminal lawyer Marcos García Montes -, who are still finalizing the details and transfer of documentation of the case. In this regard, one of the program’s collaborators provided information, until now unknown.
As explained in the program, Daniel Sancho’s current attitude would not be coincidental. The collaborator wanted to explain that, eight years ago, the son of actor Rodolfo Sancho would have experienced a very traumatic event that would have changed his life forever.
“Eight years ago, a very traumatic event occurred, an unexpected death occurred for Daniel. A death that affected the entire family unexpectedly. This caused him a very strong shock and there began a change in Daniel’s life. “he explained.
According to this collaborator, the matter had been resolved “with more or less luck,” but it seems that things would not be as resolved as more than one would like. What’s more, they even refer to a key phrase from the letter that the father of Edwin Arrieta’s confessed murderer sent to the family of the deceased.
“It is obvious, he had some type of psychotic break or that he had some mental illness that had never surfaced,” Rodolfo writes, dispelling doubts. “But there is certainly no excuse or forgiveness for what he has done.” The letter ends with a very personal message, in which the interpreter asks Edwin’s family to “sooner or later” find “peace” in their hearts. “”I don’t know if I will find it again,” he admits. he.
That “I don’t know if I will find her again” would be the key phrase that would indicate that there have been more occasions in which the actor would have had to deal with something traumatic with his son, according to the collaborator; an event that would have involved “many people, a large, unexplained and traumatic event, which could shed some light on the investigation.”
The Police, who interrogated Sancho for at least three days at the Koh Phangan police station and carried out reconstructions of the crime with the help of the Spaniard, have continued working on the case after the accused entered prison. According to the latest information, the Police are concluding the investigation report on the case, and plan to deliver it to the Prosecutor’s Office in mid-September.
Based on a bilateral agreement between Spain and Thailand, Spanish prisoners sentenced in the Asian country can request a transfer to a Spanish prison after serving at least four years of their sentence, as long as this is not the capital punishment, which the country It contemplates crimes such as premeditated murder, although this is usually later commuted to life imprisonment.
