Daniel Sancho, who has been imprisoned in Samui Prison in Thailand for almost eight months, will begin his trial on April 9 for the murder of Colombian Edwin Arrieta. The Spaniard appears to be in one of the friendliest prisons in Thailand. “The environment is good, we are treated well, there is no violence or drugs.“, he explains to the Efe agency, quoted by World.
Daniel Sancho is in the hospital wing of the prison, where prisoners with health problems or during the period of adaptation are placed. The prison is not crowded, unlike other prisons in the country. Samui Prison houses 500 inmates who wear beige sweaters and dogfish.
He is currently sharing a cell with about 50 inmates who sleep on mats or the floor. One day he had to sleep with only 15 other prisoners, but the number had to be increased due to renovations at the prison. They must be in the cell from 16:00 to 6:20 in the morning.
Daniel Sancho tells Efe, quoted by World, who does yoga alone every day and trains Muay Thai with other prisoners. In addition to outdoor activities, there is also a library. “I read a lot. I haven’t read in years,” he said.
A 29-year-old man is accused of killing and dismembering Colombian surgeon Edwin Arrieta by cutting him into 14 pieces and dumping them in various parts of Koh Phangan island in Thailand.
