Actor Rodolfo Sancho testifies in Fuerteventura over alleged “extortions”

One of the partners of the person murdered by his son accuses him of pressuring him to lie during the trial

This morning the actor appeared before the court in Puerto del Rosario, where Judge Nilson Rodríguez confirmed the criminal complaint filed against Rodolfo Sancho. He is accused of “extortion” aimed at forcing false testimony during the trial held in Thailand concerning Daniel Sancho.

The actor, who lives on the island, refused to give statements to the press either upon entering or leaving the Puerto del Rosario courthouse, where he testified before the judge of Instruction Court No. 7.

According to Alfredo Arrien, the plaintiff’s lawyer, “the client was offered money, then promised more money, and was forced to do things he didn’t want to do. In the end, he refused. Then he was coerced with the threat of being reported.”
