Ashington pensioner David Hunter has pleaded to be let out of jail in Cyprus to visit his wife's grave.
The 75-year-old is awaiting trial for "mercy killing" his terminally ill wife Janice, who had blood cancer. He is facing a life sentence if found guilty of the pre-meditated murder.
He says they had a suicide pact but after David smothered her, he failed to take his own life.
