“It’s complicated and it seems like a nightmare (…) It’s a very long thing,” Rodrigo acknowledged before the microphones of Europapress.
About his brother Rodolfo, who immediately after finding out what happened took a flight to Thailand, he explained: “Let’s see, I talk to my brother and what happens is that there are some things that he does not tell us to protect us from some details.

Sancho is accused of murder and of dismembering the victim’s body into pieces to hide his remains. “I am guilty, but I was his hostage. He held me hostage. It was a glass cage, but it was a cage. He made me destroy my relationship with my girlfriend, he forced me to do things that I would never have done,” Daniel himself declared. to Efe.
