An army sergeant has been found guilty of tampering with his wife's parachute in an attempt to try and kill her.

Emile Cilliers had run up debts of around £22,000 and was plotting to gain access to his wife Victoria's life insurance payout.

The 38-year-old, from Amesbury, removed key parts of Mrs Cillier's reserve parachute before she took part in a 4,000ft jump at Netheravon Airfield, in Wiltshire, on 5 April 2015.

As a Captain in the army, Mrs Cilliers had a love for skydiving. She worked as an instructor and competed nationally.

It was just five weeks after giving birth that her husband came up with an elaborate plot to try and kill her.

The couple's relationship had started to go downhill.

Cilliers had been having affairs during his wife's pregnancy, not only with a woman he met on the dating site Tinder but also with his ex-wife.

He had also made arrangements with prostitutes.
