A court hearing in Cyprus for a British man accused of killing his wife has been adjourned until next week following a prosecution request, his defence team said on Tuesday.

David Hunter, 75, had faced a murder charge over the death last year of his wife, Janice, although his defence lawyers had asked Cyprus’ attorney-general to reduce the charges to assisted suicide and have changed his plea to manslaughter.
