The tax adviser was accused of defrauding around £900,000 from the German solar power firm she worked for.

Inna admitted to staging her demise after false documents were found in the house. Appearing in court soon after her arrest, she said: "It was clear they were going to catch me, but I wanted some time." The prosecutor's office has estimated the total amount she defrauded sits at around £5million. This week she reached a plea deal where she will avoid jail if she repays £1.5million. Her sister Anna, who wrote the email to the court, will also avoid jail. It comes as a British dad died this week on the island when he fell off a wall onto rocks. Ben Clark, 41, died instantly when he plunged 15ft in the early hours of Friday morning. His daughter, Kaci Fraya, is believed to have been on the Spanish holiday to Cala Agulla on the island's northeast coast with her dad at the time of his death.
