Parents of hero soldier slam his widow for selling his medal for £500

The parents of a young soldier killed in Afghanistan have told of their disgust after his widow sold a medal honouring his sacrifice on Gumtree.

SIA, citing Daily Mail, reports Fusilier Simon Annis' wife Caroline was presented with the posthumous Elizabeth Cross - given to the next of kin of soldiers killed in action - after he died in an explosion in Helmand in 2009 at just 22.

She has now been branded 'callous' by the soldier's parents, after she sold it for £500 through the website without even offering it to them.

The couple have now paid out £2,457 to its new owner in order to get their son's Elizabeth Cross back.
