bbc.co.uk on February 03, 2012 reported that a bogus therapist and his wife who told women they could diagnose and treat cancer have been found guilty of sexual assault and fraud. Reginald and Leila Gill claimed to offer therapies for women at their home in Cwmduad, Carmarthenshire, despite not being medically trained. Mr Gill, 77, was found guilty of nine sexual offences and two fraud charges at Swansea Crown Court. His wife, 35, was found guilty of one count of sexual assault and fraud. They have been bailed for sentence at a later date. The pair, who were first exposed on the BBC Wales consumer programme X-Ray, had pleaded not guilty. The jury took an hour and a half to reach a unanimous verdict.
