After several weeks of investigation, the Thai police have ruled out the accidental death of Colombian surgeon Edwin Arrieta, and consider that the Spanish Daniel Sancho premeditatedly planned his execution, previously buying the necessary material to carry out his plans. In addition, the police have recalled that in the case of premeditated murder, Thai justice normally requests the death penalty. At a press conference last Tuesday, the deputy director and other officials of the Thai Police have acknowledged, however, that the murder weapon has not been found and the cause of the Colombian's death is not clear.
A press conference offered on the island of Koh Samui, where the confessed murderer has been imprisoned until now, awaiting a trial date, which is expected to be next September. Today he could receive a visit from his relatives, but it will not be like that, because his parents would have decided not to travel to Thailand for security reasons. His father, the actor Rodolfo Sancho, is entrenched in his house in Fuerteventura, where he lives with his wife, the also actress Xènia Tostado; and Jimena, their daughter.
The spirits are not the best, but the actor has not stopped. First, he asked the media for the "maximum respect" through a statement issued by his lawyers, in addition to collaborating with the Thai police as much as possible; and later, he contacted Darlin Arrieta, the victim's sister, to apologize for her son's actions. Rodolfo Sancho and Silvia Bronchales did not travel to Thailand, as planned, for security reasons. He does it from the urbanization where he lives on the Canary Island, fully shielded with various security measures.
According to his neighbors, the actor does not leave his home at all, except to make an occasional call, which he cuts off when he meets someone else. This is how the magazine Lecturas has caught her, who carry the interpreter on their cover. With a serious and visibly sad face, he is the shadow of what he once was.
As the lawyer Carmen Bafalgon, who is acting as spokesperson for the Sancho family at this time, assures, the protagonist of El Ministerio del Tiempo is "so dejected that he doesn't even take the dog out."
The father of the confessed murderer of Edwin Arrieta does not understand what could have happened to his eldest son if he was capable of committing a crime of this caliber, and he made this known to the victim's family in a message he sent to his sister of the deceased a few days ago.
"Hello Darling. How are you? I'm Rodolfo Sancho, Daniel Sancho's father. I'm very sorry for what happened to your brother," he began by saying, "I think he must have had a disorder. Sorry, we are two destroyed families, I'm sorry. I don't know what could have gone through Daniel's head. Sorry, we are very confused with all this that is happening," he expressed.
The sister of the Colombian surgeon confirmed that her family was "destroyed", but the one who would be having the worst time would be precisely Rodolfo. “It is a horrible nightmare that no human being deserves to live. But it must be more painful to be the father of someone who did something like that. Knowing that his son is a monster, ”said Darlin Arrieta.
The family, even while in Spain, is not losing detail of what is happening in Spain. As far as is known, the Sanchos suffered an emotional setback after what was heard by the Thai police. In fact, the first reaction of Rodolfo Sancho and his wife has been bad.
