Description
On 13 November 2010, newly-wed Anni Hindocha Dewani was shot dead while on honeymoon in Cape Town, South Africa, after the vehicle she was travelling in was hijacked. Within weeks her husband Shrien - a successful businessman from the UK - was accused of being involved, an allegation he has vehemently denied. Since Anni's death, three people have been convicted in South Africa of her murder and a prolonged legal process has taken place within the UK in an attempt to extradite her husband so that he may stand trial. Eventually, in early 2014, the High Court of Justice in London approved Shrien's return. He maintains his innocence. This book examines the background to the case and the events that have followed - in both South Africa and the UK - in the more than three years since this much-loved young woman's death. It pays particular attention to the various court cases in Cape Town and London that have helped make this tragic story dominate headlines around the world. "A 'must-read' for all those interested in true crime, South Africa, and the British legal system."
