In the final stretch of the trial against Daniel Sancho The atmosphere is increasingly tense. In part, thanks to the accusations he has launched in recent days Juango Ospinathe Spanish lawyer who advises the family of Edwin Arrieta and that points to a favorable treatment towards the son of Rodolfo Sancho not only by the Thai authorities but also by the Spanish authorities: “I don’t like this at all,” he said this Tuesday. From the Spanish embassy, they are outraged: “These accusations are very serious”has commented Carmen Balfagón.
Rodolfo Sancho’s Spanish lawyer has expressed indignation: “That the embassy is having favorable treatment with Daniel’s case are statements that in Spain would not be made in any judicial case,” she said on Antena 3. “I am referring to the statements of my colleague Juango Ospina. What is being said is very serious. Very serious. No lawyer practicing in Spain would dare to say that a judge or jury is bought. Why is it being said in Thailand?“. Balfagón, who has been in Thailand since this Monday, explained: “I have been speaking with personnel from the Spanish embassy and they have significant indignation.”
It was last Friday when Juango Ospina denounced for the first time alleged irregularities in the proceedings against Daniel Sancho: “Very strange things are happening in this trial and all in favor of Sancho,” he said. “Three weeks ago we believed that they were coincidences but now they are black on white and we are going to take action on the matter. For example, on Tuesday the power outages began in the area and I was testifying without air conditioning in the room for hours and Nobody said anything. On Wednesday two police officers did so as witnesses and nothing happened either. On Thursday it was Daniel’s turn to testify and they postponed the statement for days because there is no air conditioning. It is inexplicable, why he did, and the others didn’t.”
Ospina also pointed out the leak of interested information that favored Daniel and the continued presence of the Spanish vice-consul in the sessions: “It draws our attention powerfully. Why does the vice-consul go to all the sessions of a trial against a confessed dismemberer? He is an official paid with everyone’s money, is it really necessary for him to go to all the sessions to accompany the family of a confessed dismemberer? We have never seen this before. This Tuesday, far from rectifying, he insisted: “The fact that someone from the consular office went every day, if not him, is an implicit message that I don’t like at all. The authorities do not get involved in the judicial procedures of the country because it could be an attack on judicial independence.
