Briton jailed for a year in Cyprus over hit-and-run death of Swedish woman

Tourist found guilty of causing death through reckless act while on drugs, and of fleeing the scene

A British tourist has been jailed for a year after a Cypriot court convicted him over the hit-and-run death of a Swedish mother in a holiday resort on the island.

The Famagusta district court also revoked the 25-year-old's driving licence for 18 months on Friday, but authorities did not release his name.
