Bennie Wint

Bennie Wint believed that he was wanted on drug related charges when he disappeared during a holiday on which he was supposed to be marrying his second wife. He staged his drowning by swimming into the surf. His body was never found despite an air and sea search. Wint changed his name, moved and started a new life. Twenty years later traffic police stopped him for not having a light on his licence plate. He confessed immediately and was surprised to learn that he wasn't wanted for anything. Wint had an ex-first wife and daughter, a fiancee who had been left at the altar and a new wife and son who were all unaware of his double life. Shortly after this incident he was run over outside his house, it is not known who was behind the wheel of the car.
