What does the full moon party in Thailand look like, where the son of Rodolfo Sancho and the Colombian surgeon met
After his arrest, Daniel was transferred to a preventive prison in Koh Samui, in the south of that Asian country. The actor’s son Rodolfo Sancho did not directly enter the cell with the other prisoners. Instead, he was placed in isolation for 10 days as a preventive measure and anti-COVID-19 protocol.

Daniel Sancho’s first days in prison
According to the Spanish portal Lecturas, Sancho is in a prison which, although not as scary as the famous Bangkok Hilton, also presents unfavorable conditions and had to face situations different from those he expected.
According to the “Summer Program”, in the Thai prison the national anthem is played very early, then the prisoners have two hours to shower, but they only have 16 showers for more than 700 prisoners. Food is considered “the worst”.

They only have soup with bones and some rice, explained journalist Jorge Luque, a contributor to the program, from Koh Samui prison. The communicator added that detainees have three blankets that they must use for sleeping, one on the floor, one for covering and the other as a pillow.
The journalist assured that after the second night in prison, Sancho would ask that they bring him better food than what they are giving, as well as tranquilizers. He would also ask to call his family.

The director of the prison where Daniel is placed offered some hints for the aforementioned Spanish program, about what Sancho’s first days in prison look like.

Upon arrival at the prison, they cut Sancha’s hair and provided him with suitable clothes for his stay. However, he found himself in a situation where he had to sleep with five other people, and not all of them had enough mats to rest on. Besides, he would ask for some vitamins in the prison clinic.
The director mentioned that Sancho is “nervous” and that he “has to learn what life is like in prison.”

Sancho could not get in touch with anyone except Khun Anan, the lawyer appointed to defend him. In addition, it is located in a different area from the cells, and is in accordance with the anticovid protocol.
Life imprisonment or death penalty? What qualification in the laws of Thailand has the gruesome murder committed by the Spaniard Daniel Sancho against the Colombian surgeon?
Once that time is up, he will have to adjust to the strict routine of prison life, which includes set times for meals or visits.
It is not known at this time whether Daniel’s father Rodolfo Sancho or his mother Silvia Bronchalo were able to speak with him. Daniel hopes to return to Spain, which he revealed in his first statements to the press.
However, the road will not be easy, as he must be tried, convicted and serve at least eight years in a Thai prison before he can decide to request a transfer to his country. (AND)
