"Terrified" is reportedly facing the prospect of a conviction for 75-year-old British man David Hunter who is facing justice in Cyprus on charges of murdering his wife Janice, who was suffering from a terminal illness.
Hunter suffocated his wife, also 75, in their apartment in the village of Tremithousa in Paphos last December, and then tried to kill himself with an overdose of drugs.

Speaking to Sky News, the couple's daughter Leslie Cothorn conveyed her father's fears following the rejection of a request to amend the charge she faces to "assisted suicide".
Ms Cothorn said that her father is "haunted" by her mother's cries of pain due to rheumatoid arthritis, cancer and other illnesses from which she suffered.
She called on Cypriot judges to show "compassion", stressing that her father does not pose a danger to society.
She noted that her mother had reached the point of not being able to go up to her bedroom every night and had made clear her desire not to live any longer with the pains that plagued her.
