A newlywed doctor has been shot dead during a robbery while on her Caribbean honeymoon, police said today.

Catherine Mullany, formerly Bowen, and her husband, Benjamin, of Pontardawe, near Swansea, south Wales, were asleep when robbers apparently burst into their holiday cottage at the Cocos Hotel in south-west Antigua.

Mrs Mullany was pronounced dead at the scene and her husband was taken to hospital with a severe gunshot wound to his neck after hotel guests discovered the couple and called police at around 5am yesterday, according to the Antigua Sun newspaper.

The couple, both 31, had arrived in the Caribbean on July 14 and had been due to return home today.
