British expat guilty of manslaughter after killing his terminally ill wife

PA

A British expat has been cleared of murdering his terminally ill wife at their retirement home in Cyprus. Janice Hunter, 74, who suffered from blood cancer, died of asphyxiation in December 2021 near the coastal resort town of Paphos.

Her husband, former miner David Hunter, had denied murder and told a court that his wife had “begged him” to end her life. Following a trial, he has been found guilty of manslaughter and may receive a suspended sentence.
