Babis Anagnostopoulos may be charged for claiming Caroline Crouch died in botched burglary

The Greek pilot, who allegedly confessed to strangling his British wife in May as she slept in their Athens home beside the couple's baby, should be tried for premeditated murder, according to charges made public on Thursday.

The public prosecutor handling the case also recommended that Babis Anagnostopoulos be charged with lying to police after claiming for 37 days that the death of his wife, Caroline Crouch, was the result of a botched burglary.
