Cypriot prosecutors are appealing against the manslaughter conviction of a British man who killed his ill wife.
David Hunter, 76, had been accused of murdering his wife Janice, 74, at their home in Cyprus but was convicted of manslaughter and released from prison.
The former miner from Ashington, Northumberland, said his wife, who had cancer, begged him to kill her.
It is understood he will face charges of premeditated murder following an appeal by Cyprus' Attorney General.
