A court in Cyprus has ruled the confession of a British man to killing his terminally ill wife was obtained lawfully and can be used in evidence against him.
Hunter has admitted killing his wife but his legal team has argued it was assisted suicide at her request. His lawyers had previously called a forensic psychiatrist to give evidence, who said that Hunter was suffering from dissociation at the time and that his statements to medics should be inadmissible against him.
Michael Polak, of Justice Abroad, the group representing Hunter, said the pensioner is"shocked and dejected" at the decision. Hunter's lawyers said he was acting on the wishes of his wife, who they say was terminally ill with blood cancer.Met Police chief 'embarrassed' by review
