Geoffrey Elton is accused of killing his Spanish wife Gloria Tornay before police found him soaked in blood having turned the knife on himself, prosecutors say
An expat Brit stabbed his Spanish wife to death shortly after having sex with her at their Costa del Sol villa, say prosecutors.
They believe Geoffrey Elton, 56, tried to strangle Gloria Tornay, 58, then chased her with a knife.
The retired businessman is said to have flipped after his wife of about 30 years planned to leave him.
Police found him soaked in blood after stabbing himself next to her body at their £450,000 four-bedroom home on March 9 last year.
Elton has been held on remand in prison ever since and details of the case have only just come to light as he is charged with murder.
