Not all the news coming from Thailand portends the solutions that Daniel Sanchofrom the bars of Koh Samui, I would like to hear. The confessed murderer counts the days until his trial. And those days seem closer since the full stop was written to the police report that studied his case. His sentence hangs a few threads that can vary the resolution between the death penalty and a sentence of 15 years in a Thai cell. The prosecution has not hidden this reality and, in fact, they insist that it is still possible that the worst possible scenario for Sancho will apply.
This is what he pointed to Maria Miñanareporter TardeAR, after speaking exclusively with the spokesman for the Attorney General of Thailand, Naron Srirasan. He is not just anyone; This individual is in charge of examining the report prepared by the investigators. Sancho’s salvation comes from his analysis, and the ship with black sails leaves the same port. Before giving way to his statements, Miñana advances what the Thai said: “What tells me is that he is clear about premeditation, because he bought the knives and instruments to commit the crime, and murder with premeditation is punishable by death here in Thailand”.
“It is a planned murder”
The spokesperson’s last steps are key. “The prosecutor is examining the file. The case involved the interrogation of approximately 19 witnesses.”, the journalist has detailed. Sriraran stated: “There were many documents, approximately 40 enchanted objects from many areas.” And then the key moment arrived, shedding light on the mystery of the prison future of Edwin Arrieta’s murderer.

“It is a planned murder and he is also accused of hiding the body. The most serious charge at the moment is the accusation of premeditated murder. According to Thai law, the crime is punishable by the death penalty.”specified the spokesperson, who insists that the possibility of it not being applied exists because there is also the possibility of it being executed. One of the loopholes that could be explored to support the reduction of the sentence is that of cooperation. And yet Sriraran reiterates that it would be necessary to verify if that help was actually a significant contribution to the research.
It has also resolved, as far as possible, Sancho’s aspirations to be tried within Spanish borders. “In this case, it is at the discretion of the Spanish government to request it or not, although in this case extradition may be complicated because the witnesses are in Thailand, and the victim was not Spanish”, he assured. Words that have realistically fallen like heavy rain on the roof of Koh Samui.
