An 87-year-old British man has been arrested on suspicion of the attempted murder of his ‘sick and bedridden’ wife in Greece.
The pensioner allegedly tried to suffocate the 89-year-old woman with a pillow in their apartment in Paleo Faliro, around 6km west of Athens city centre, yesterday.
The man told police that he tried to kill her because she ‘asked him to and wanted to die’, local media has reported.
The woman was taken to the Janeio hospital for treatment. Her condition is currently unknown.
