A husband cleared of tipping a vat of boiling fat over his wife at their fish and chip shop has died less than three years after his acquittal.
Businessman Geoffrey Bran carried on serving customers after his wife Mavis was burned alive by the 160 degree oil at their Chipoteria takeaway in the village of Hermon, west Wales, his trial heard.
Mrs Bran, 69, told a friend and a paramedic that her husband had deliberately thrown the bubbling hot fat over her after she told him off for burning four portions of cod.
