The wife of a disabled man who was partly blind and his carer have been found guilty of slavery in a case believed to be the first of its kind in the UK.

Tom Somerset-How, 40, was “treated like property” by Sarah Somerset-How, 49, and George Webb, 50, who were having an affair behind his back.

A trial heard how the victim was held like a “prisoner in his own home” in Chichester, West Sussex, where he was cut off from his loved ones and was in effect treated like a slave.
