Daniel Sancho meets his father in the Koh Samui courts and manages to postpone his hearing before the judge

It was planned that Daniel Sancho will testify this Thursday, October 26, in the Koh Samui court after being accused this Wednesday by the Prosecutor’s Office of premeditated murder, concealment of the body and destruction of other people’s documentation. The magistrate was going to read him the charges against him but finally the hearing has been postponed because the son of Rodolfo Sancho y Silvia Bronchalo has requested the assistance of a Spanish translator.

Sancho Gracia’s grandson has gone to court. The hearing began at 9 local time but, following his request, it was postponed for a few hours. However, it was not held throughout the morning either because the session was finally postponed to November 13.

In addition to postponing it, the court assigned the 29-year-old chef a public defender, Krit Sudthanom. This lawyer has assured at the doors of the court that he has not yet met with Sancho and that he will not do so until November 13, the day of the hearing. It must be remembered that in September, after his first visit to the Asian country, Daniel’s father dispensed with the services of Khun Ananthe lawyer then hired by the family to handle their defense in Thailand.

According to the court-appointed lawyer, Sancho refused to make any statement this Thursday and conveyed his desire to have an in-person interpreter, after the court offered him one online. Rodolfo Sancho, who traveled to Thailand earlier this week, was also in court and was able to speak with his son before he was transferred back to Koh Samui prison, where he has been serving provisional detention since August 7 after confess to having murdered the 44-year-old Colombian doctor. The protagonist of Isabel y The Ministry of Time He has come without his lawyer Marcos García Montes, but with a Thai assistant.

It must be remembered that premeditated murder is punishable by the death penalty in the Asian country. To avoid the maximum penalty, his defense (the Thai and the Spanish) will try to demonstrate before the Thai justice system that the murder was not premeditated. To this end, the Balfagón-Chippirrás firm, an expert in criminology, has worked on a report with which they intend to turn the case around.
