It has been a month since Daniel Sancho entered the Koh Samui prison, in Thailand, accused of murdering the Colombian surgeon Edwin Arrieta and arrested on August 4. Rodolfo Sancho's son has remained in prison since then and in recent weeks he has received visits from both the actor and Silvia Bronchalo, Daniel's mother.
The case acquired a media tinge since it became known and has generated great social interest. Despite the secrecy with which the Thai authorities want to treat what happened, the media has followed Sancho's steps to find out where and how he is at all times. This time, the program Así es la vida, on Telecinco, has obtained the first images of the interior of the prison where he is being held.
The space presented by Sandra Barneda assures that Daniel Sancho is "in the nursing module" in Koh Samui, and has managed to reconstruct his daily life in prison. "At 6 in the morning the cells are opened and the first count of inmates is made; from that moment on, Daniel has 45 minutes to clean himself and show up in the yard," says This is Life.
After raising the flag and singing the Thai national anthem, at 8 in the morning, the prisoners come to have breakfast. Both that meal, and a subsequent one that takes place at 11:45, consist of "rice with chicken bones unless you order food from outside for 120 bats, just over 3 euros in exchange", always according to the Telecinco program.
"From 3:00 p.m., everyone enjoys free time: Sancho can read, exercise in teams, play chess or take a walk," said Así es la vida, an hour during which dinner is also held only for those inmates. that they can pay for it, on the condition that they return to the cell at 4:00 p.m.
An hour later, Daniel Sancho can watch television, "downloaded programs on a device so that the contents are controlled by the staff at all times." The prisoners must keep "absolute silence" after 9:00 p.m., which is bedtime, although the Telecinco program recalls that it is difficult to fall asleep since "the lights never go out."
