A statement from New South Wales Police said he is under police guard at a hospital. He was taken there for treatment of injuries to his wrists and chest.

Superintendent Gregory Antonjuka says it appears she died as a result of a domestic dispute.

Meanwhile the British Foreign Office is providing consular assistance to the family.

Police were called to a car-park in the Taren Point area at about 2.20pm (local time) on Wednesday, after the body was located.
