British expat David Hunter, 78, dies in Cyprus following his conviction in the death of his terminally ill wife, Janice Hunter, 74. Multiple outlets report that Hunter was found guilty of manslaughter in 2023 after he admitted killing Janice, who was suffering from a terminal illness. Reports say Hunter suffocated his wife at their home in Tremithousa, near Paphos, in December 2021.
After the conviction, he was reportedly released from jail, and later became hospitalized in critical condition while being treated in Cyprus. Several outlets state that his death follows this period of illness and hospital care, though specific medical details vary by report and are not fully detailed in the provided summaries.
The reports consistently describe the case’s core timeline: the December 2021 death at the Hunters’ residence, the manslaughter conviction in 2023, and Hunter’s later release from prison and eventual death while in hospital in Cyprus.
