The sisterly love that Darling Arrieta feels for Edwin, the surgeon murdered and dismembered by Daniel Sancho, grows stronger every day.

She is determined to stand up for him, on behalf of her seventy-year-old parents and the entire family. Since the terrible news about the murder, which took place in Thailand, became known, she has asked for respect for Edwin.

He said it at the beginning of August from his native Lorica (Colombia): “This person (Sancho) is taking advantage of my brother’s absence (…) he is polluting my brother’s name, but my brother cannot defend himself,” he stated . El Universo.

Darling arrived in Spain just over a month after the gruesome murder. He has not changed his position and in the Mañaneros program, Heraldo announced, he stated the reason for his trip: “To clear my brother’s name.”

‘Don’t talk about what you don’t know about Edwin’

A week ago, the surgeon’s mother, Mrs. Marcela Arteaga, declared with pain and determination to Mañaneros himself: “Don’t say things that are not true.”

‘That they don’t speak ill of my son. He is dead and the dead are respected,” said the surgeon’s mother, standing next to Teobaldo, her husband.

Darling made those words his own, declaring: “Nobody says to speak well of my brother, but don’t speak of what they don’t know, respect the name of my family and my brother,” Heraldo published on September 13. 2023.

He lamented in pain: “They have failed my brother and my family.”

“They said Edwin was a gangster, that he came from a family of dangerous drug traffickers. My parents are simple people, I don’t even smoke. We are normal, simple people, with values. “My parents are workers and they sacrificed themselves to give my brother and me an education,” 20 Minutos quoted her as saying.

In previous statements, he has described Edwin Arrieta as a “man with a noble and generous heart.”

For example, he told the EFE agency: “Edwin was the driving force of our family (…) he was very devoted to the Virgin of Fátima.”

This time in Spain she declared that her brother ‘was light’ and that they would see her in the rainbow when this storm passed.

The woman told Mañaneros that her family has no lawyers in Thailand. He does hope that his brother’s ashes will soon be sent to Colombia.

Regarding Daniel Sancho, who has been imprisoned since August 5 for this infamous crime, he said he trusted Thai justice.

Message to Daniel Sancho’s parents

Like Doña Marcela, Darling acknowledged that they have nothing against Daniel Sancho’s parents.

He also thinks it is a shame that no one from that family has tried to make contact with them in Colombia, he told the TV program.

To Silvia Bronchalo and Rodolfo Sancho, he said he would say: “There are some parents on the other side of the pond who are also suffering in old age.”

Darling shyly spoke of “this challenge” he has had to take on: giving interviews and making a flight that takes so many hours that I can only make trips of an hour, an hour and a half; “But it’s worth it because I come to clear my brother’s name, to really talk about who Edwin Arrieta Arteaga was.”
