A Thai court has sentenced Daniel Sancho, the son of renowned Spanish actor Rodolfo Sancho, to life in prison for the murder of Colombian plastic surgeon Edwin Arrieta Arteaga at a holiday resort in Thailand. The incident took place on Koh Phangan, an island off the southern coast of Thailand.
During the trial, it was revealed that the 30-year-old chef killed Arrieta following a fight and then dismembered the body, placing parts in plastic bags which were later discarded around the island. Sancho, who made YouTube videos, admitted to the killing but claimed it was not premeditated, stating that he acted out of extreme anger.
