Daniel Sancho Bronchalo, the son of television star Rodolfo Sancho Aguirre, claimed he killed Colombian plastic surgeon Edwin Arrieta Arteaga in self-defence. He pleaded guilty to the murder in August 2023.

At the time, Sancho, now 30, told Spanish news agency EFE he had been a "hostage" to Arrieta, who he said was obsessed with him.

The case has generated a huge amount of interest in Spain, with scores of Spanish reporters flying to Thailand for the trial.

Sancho was found guilty of premeditated murder, concealing a corpse, and destruction of property.
