As the investigation focused on finding the perpetrators, the focus switched to Shrien, with the suspects in the murder alleging that he had ordered Anni’s assassination only weeks after the couple had tied the knot.
Investigative journalist an explanation
Investigative journalist Leigh-Anne Jansen provided an explanation for some of the red flags that were discovered throughout the inquiry. “Our is not how crimes are carried out in this country. The automobile would not be abandoned with a dead corpse inside it, either. The vehicle would be dismantled and burned. Everything would be seized and sold.
There would be nothing left. According to her, “Red flags were flying everywhere left-right, and center.” “Perhaps something like this happened? Is it possible that this occurred? According to them, “we need to know the truth.” On the saddest of all, they are referring to Vinod’s daughter Anni Dewani, who was abducted while at her wedding in South Africa on November 13, 2010, and eventually discovered dead.

She was killed by three men from South Africa, including the taxi driver and two hijackers, who were all sentenced to jail for their roles in the crime. Despite the fact that Shrien Dewani, the man suspected of orchestrating his wife’s murder, had been extradited to South Africa, his trial was dismissed owing to a lack of evidence before he was ever called to the stand. In the perspective of the law, he is completely exonerated of all charges.
