An Italian man broke house arrest to head back to jail on Friday, saying he couldn't stand staying with his wife.

The 36-year-old from Sicily told police in Milan: "I can't stand her any more. I fled house arrest to flee from her."

The man has almost four years left to serve on a ten-year Mafia term.

He was allowed out of jail for good behaviour late last year and granted what he found the dubious privilege of house arrest.
