Upper-circuit court upholds 15-year-sentence for husband of best-selling author

An upper-circuit court in Olomouc has upheld a 15-year prison sentence for the husband of writer Simona Monyová. The court ruled on Monday that Boris Ingr, who was charged with killing his wife, will be sent to prison for 15 years, a decision which he had appealed. In August of last year, the 46-year-old Mr Ingr attacked his wife, who was a best-selling author, with a knife and stabbed her six times. She died from the injuries.
