game show has been cancelled in Colombia after a contestant won £25,000 after admitting she had hired a hitman to kill her husband.
Nothing But The Truth has been a big hit in South America, subjecting compe ors to a lie detector test, reports Metro News.
They had to truthfully answer 21 increasingly invasive questions to win £25,000.
But the producers got into trouble when contestant Rosa Maria Solano took home the top prize after telling viewers she had tried to have her husband killed.
She admitted hiring a hitman to carry out the deed, but the plan was not followed through.
"The crime couldn't be carried out because the hitman tipped off my husband and he ran away forever - God save me,"' said Mrs Solano.
TV station Caracol pulled the show after it was threatened with legal action.
A spokesman said: "We've reached the conclusion that the content of some of the interviews, for being excessively cruel, don't conform with what Caracol has always promoted."
The show spurred a boom in the use of lie detector tests among private companies to screen employees and protect themselves from the Colombian mafia.
Everything from extra-marital affairs to drug smuggling and sexual pros ution was confessed to by contestants on the show.

Lie detector tests only work on people who don't believe their own lies.
