The murder of the Colombian Edwin Arrieta in Thailand hopes to clarify itself with the development of the trial against Daniel Sanchothe Spaniard accused of premeditated homicide, disappearance of the body and destruction of other people's documentation.
The doctor Arrieta, 44, was chatting with Sancho on August 2 on the Thai island of Koh Phangan just when the full moon holidays were being celebrated. His body was found days later dismembered in a landfill, in the sea and on the beach.
The evidence pointed to the 30-year-old Spaniard as the main suspect in the crime. The son of actor Rodolfo Sancho had denied Arrieta's sister knowledge of the plastic surgeon's whereabouts; However, he then led police to each of the locations where he dumped his remains.

During the period that the Thai authorities searched for the Colombian, Sancho wrote several messages to her cell phone, imploring her to respond, even though he was dead..
The chat, revealed by the Spanish media 20 minutesdated August 3, day on which the accused had already disappeared the victim's body.
- Chiqui, where are you?
- I am very, very worried.
- I haven't seen you in hours.
- You have entered into the maximum madness of Haad Rin.
- You carried all your things, money, cell phone…
According to the conversation, Sancho stated that his traveling companion had gone to Haad Rin, one of the areas of the island where there was a party.
Hours later he continued sending messages:
- Chiqui, please, you have to answer.
- I'm going to have to call the police.
- Chiqui, for God's sake, I hope you're there and that you simply lost your cell phone or your bag.
- I don't understand anything. I'm afraid.
The young man even claimed that he was searching for him incessantly:
- I had come to look for you at the beach we were at before because it was the place you knew, but I'm sure you don't remember the name, especially in this state.
- You weren't at the hotel. You're not in the other hotel…
- God, little one. You've been gone for too many hours.
- What the hell do I do?
As Darling Arrieta revealed, Sancho assured her via chat that he had last seen the doctor on the beach.
“(I wrote to him) 'what do you know about my brother?'. He told me 'hello, how are you? I saw him on the beach yesterday, but I lost track of him. We took some hallucinogenic mushrooms.' He asked me 'do you know what hallucinogenic mushrooms are?' And he told me they were like mushrooms,” he said in an interview with the television network. Telecinco.
In an interview with EL TIEMPO, Juan Gonzalo Ospina, lawyer for Edwin Arrieta's family, had described the messages that Sancho sent as an “alibi.”
“Initially, Mr. Sancho denies the commission of this crime. He tells the family that he has simply disappeared, even He sends messages from his mobile phone to Mr. Arrieta to give him, we understand, as an alibi, to make him believe that they cannot find him.. When there is pressure from Darling, Edwin's sister, to file a disappearance report, all the alarms about Mr. Sancho are activated and he ends up being arrested,” she said.
Chats from Daniel Sancho's cell phone are part of the evidentiary material that was exposed in the closed-door trial. The Police broke down before the judge which messages the accused exchanged with the victim.
Premeditated murder is punishable in Thailand by capital punishment or life imprisonment. Sancho has not accepted said crime; He only accepted the charge of disappearance of the Colombian's body.
The trial, which began on April 9, will last until May. There is still no date on which the judge could issue a ruling.
