Daniel Sancho continues to try to integrate into his new life in Surat Thani after being transferred from prison after spending more than a year in preventive detention in Koh Samui, a place where he seemed very integrated with his companions. After learning of the life sentence, the Spaniard could ask the judge to do something to avoid being moved, but his request was not accepted. This is the second time he has received cold water, because he did not think the sentence would be so severe, something that is known thanks to the fact that the content of the conversation he had with Rodolfo Sancho, his father, a few hours after the news was announced, is known.
While the family of the Colombian surgeon is satisfied with the punishment, since they did not ask for the death penalty in any case, The Spaniard’s defense and his family were convinced they could bring him down. All their efforts were focused on trying to prove that Arrieta’s death was an act of self-defense to avoid a sexual assault and that it was not premeditated, something they failed to achieve. The purchases of knives, a saw and other types of objects led to the decision that he had planned the death and subsequent dismemberment of the deceased, who was found distributed in several garbage bags distributed in different areas.
This is the program Let’s seefrom Telecinco, the one who exclusively revealed what the father and son were able to talk about just a few hours after reading the sentence and his rapid transfer from prison, a decision that was to be taken after a few days.

In the video broadcast by the program, you can see the sentences that Daniel said to his father.It’s hard, it’s a hard sentence. A lot. It’s all very unfair. It was all an accident, I want to defend myself until the end, because it will be proven“, says the convict.
The blow was enormous and yet, from what we understand in this conversation, he did not deal with it: “I don’t understand a life sentence. It’s not fair. I don’t understand. Because I was just defending myself, I was just defending myself“Despite the bad news, he remains hopeful that he will be able to prove his worth and asks his family not to give up: “I am calm because I trust the resources, I trust that they will succeed. We have no other possible way“.
“We have demonstrated it in court, we have demonstrated it with evidence. I don’t understand. But this is the direction we must continue in. Because there is no other. I am strong, I am calm.“, he continues to tell his father. Although there are hardly any foreign prisoners who speak English in his new prison, the majority being Thai, he is convinced to continue fighting without giving up: “I’m going to adjust well to where I am. But please don’t stop working to prove that I’m innocent of all this.“.
