A retired Italian man has confessed to killing his wife with a hunting rifle because he believed she was possessed.
The 77-year-old, Antonio Fina, was found by a relative in a "confused" state on Monday beside the body of his 77-year-old wife in their home in Mesagne, in the southern province of Brindisi. Police were called to the scene and they found a letter in which Fina wrote that his wife was possessed by the devil and often violent.
