Anni Dewani had just married Shrien Dewani, when they jetted off on honeymoon to Cape Town. However, when something awful happened, the police were soon on the case and uncovered a web that led straight back to the happily married husband, Shrien Dewani. He told one story, CCTV and the criminals told another.

@yajnaaaax9481
@yajnaaaax9481 2 года назад
If I may, I’d like to include my two cents on this case. I’m South African and grew up hearing about it occasionally. There were a few things that Mike did not share in the video that I would like to bring to light. Thomas and Calvin Mollett are brothers, they are also forensic investigators and authors. They have successfully proven and found evidence in other gruesome South African murders, such as the case of Reeva Steenkamp, girlfriend of Oscar Pistorius and Inge Lotz and Susan Rode. They focused heavily on Anni’s case and have even written a book about it now, where they go into more detail about what they’ve gathered. It’s titled The Bloodied Bride - Did Shrien Deewani get away with murder? These are some statements according to the two brothers: “ - the biggest mistake police made was letting Shrien leave the country. He was there that night and as a witness at least should have stayed to assist the police with their investigation.” They explained that it not have been a botched robbery, due to the fact that Tonga could not have had the foresight and information to plan the ‘robbery’ at a specific spot in Gugulethu, unless he’d already had the information from the groom. “Shrien could have chosen to dine in Hout Bay, which would not have taken them on the N2 and past Gugulethu.” Meaning that he could have chosen to dine closer to the hotel, instead of going on a highway and getting to the more dangerous areas. The most jarring evidence though was something that the Mollett’s found. It’s a transcription of a meeting that Shrien had with Anni’s family, when he returned to the UK. It was secretly recorded by Anni’s cousin, Sneha Mashru. He told his in-laws that Tonga had left immediately after dropping them off at the hotel, when in reality, he’d spent 10 minutes in the car with Tonga alone, while Anni checked in. Supposedly, Shrien had also withdrawn a large amount of cash to pay for a “surprise helicopter ride.” He didn’t mention this at all to his in-laws. It was revealed in court, but not really focused on. The brothers also mention, “He was there that night when his wife was killed, but he never testified. So this is an effort to distil and deduce from his various versions, what the real story is behind the death of Anni Deewani.” If I may add my own opinion to this. Almost everyone in South Africa agrees that Shrien was the perpetrator. Unfortunately, in Indian communities it’s easier to be a widower than a divorcee. He saw an out and he took it. South African hijackings are common and are no joking matter. If there ever has to be one, the hijackers will never kill one person and let the other go. Secondly, if a car has been stolen or hijacked here, it’s almost guaranteed that it’s never coming back. Cars can be stripped clean within an hour or two. It’s heartbreaking to know that Anni not only passed away, but that her last moments were probably spent panicking and fearing for her life. May she rest in peace. Stay safe y’all.

His secret life was the real him. We saw no female escorts he interacted with. OF COURSE hed say he was bi under the circumstances. Plus the cell phone texts during the kidnapping. & who tips someone in a private room?

Pistorius was an angry, entitled, controlling little man who murdered his partner in an extreme act of rage and domestic violence. And men like him never confess.

Him saving her very expensive ring and a myriad other things. He got away with murder because he managed to stretch out extradition for four years. I can't remember what i did last month accurately & if you understand a little about how human memory works then the fact that these people's memories diverged and fractured in four years isn't surprising. It's these divergences & fractures that his defence team leveraged to, essentially, get him off on a technicality. Leaving him free to run back to Randy Ron but with his Hindu credentials unsullied.

If we want to live in a world where innocent people aren't convicted of crimes they didn't commit, we can't be putting people in prison just because we think they are guilty or because it seems to be the only explanation. It needs to be proven beyond any doubt because things are not always as they first seem. It's a sad thing that sometimes guilty people go free, but it's even sadder when an innocent person has to go to prison.

It's such a sad story.. how can any man surprise his new bride with a frightening kidnapping & murder on her honeymoon, if only she went with her gut feelings to never marry the guy.

On the night of the kidnapping, it is possible that Anni's life could have been SAVED had Shrien Dewani reported to police that it was only at the taxi driver's urging that they had travelled into the No-Go Zone. Instead, he BLAMED ANNI for their ride into the township. I believe the reason he did do is because Tongo the taxi driver was acting on Dewani's orders to kidnap and murder Anni. So the fact of the matter is Dewani had NO INTENTION of trying to save her life. For those few who claim to believe Dewani is innocent, why do YOU think Dewani deflected attention away from the taxi driver on the night of the kidnapping?

And NO ONE would go do a township tour at night, let's not sugar coat it, it is what it is - as beautiful as Cape Town is there are many dangerous areas including Townships and the Cape Flats even more so for a tourist, you stick out like a sore thumb. He definitely killed her and I suspect it was due to his sexuality. He would rather be the grieving widower , not be forced to marry again and then can have his secret double life. It's so disgusting how he was able to evade justice. I feel so sorry for Annie's parents but he will get what he deserves one day.

She's ready to come home and wishes she'd never went through with the marriage. THEY text with Anni and tell her to stick it out and keep trying since this is all new to both of them. It seems to me that Anni told them that he'd not have sex with her and wasn't really into romantically touching her. It's been years since I watched it but I think it's correct. I'm going to try to find the Dateline or First 48 and see if that statement is correct.

Like what were they doing at a dangerous part of town, why did they take the wife but not the husband, why did they leave the car. None of it makes sense and the police really should have done a better job confirming the confession of other conspirators rather than just take their word for it.

The husband meeting up with the taxi driver in the hotel, the taxi driver leaving the hotel with an envelope, the husband looking at the cctv camera (just as the taxi driver stated happened when he pointed out to the husband there were cameras), the fact that the driver and the husband were texting each other while they were in the car together, the fact that it is very bizarre for them to have left the safe hotel resort to go explore a shady part of town in the middle of the night, the fact that all 3 men pointed to the husband and their stories matched with one another’s, the fact that the husband lied about the ring he said he gave to the hijackers but it was actually in the car, the fact that the husband claimed the hijackers wanted the valuables and the car but yet they left the car on the side of the road, also why would the men kidnap the wife if they got what they wanted already because it was pointed out that she was not sexually assaulted so it wasn’t about that either, the fact that the wife’s friends said she was very unhappy in the marriage and had texts to prove she said those things and she said that her husband treated her badly, the fact that the husband showed no interest in his wife’s funeral arrangements or speaking to her family, the fact that he was quick to move on to new relationships when he returned to London, the fact that he showed no signs of sadness on those recordings after his wife was killed….the list goes on and on and some people are really going to tell me this man is innocent or that there isn’t enough evidence to prove that he is guilty of the murder of his wife…I really don’t know how many more red flags you need.

Especially considering that that Cape Town is a tourist location and many wealthy tourist frequent there. There may not be enough evidence to point to his guilt but that doesn’t mean that he’s not guilty. I personally think that because he is very wealthy that it definitely had an influence on the verdict.

I still believe Shrien Dewani got away with murder. It is understandable that the witnesses like Zola Tonga were unreliable. That's because they are career criminals who always tell lies. That's their default position in self-preservation. The prosecution and the judge should've taken that into consideration and tried the case purely on circumstantial evidence and motive. You only have to look at Shrien Dewani's face during the wedding ceremony, like he was rolling his eyes inwardly and saying to himself, "how can I get out of this?" The text messages Annie sent to her friends coroborates the theory that they were a mismatched pair, but their cultural impositions forced them to make a go of a bad marriage. Shrien Dewani got away with murder. Why were he and Zola Tonga texting each other during the car ride? Why were they going to such dangerous parts of the city during that night? The fact that Shrien removed Annie's expensive engagement ring and hid it says much. He knew he'd recover it later. Annie was not sexually assaulted, meaning that the motive for her abduction was murder or robbery. If a wealthy looking couple; a man and a woman are out enjoying themselves, usually the man has the more expensive items on himself; including credit cards and money. Why did they choose to ok instead take Annie? Why did Shrien and Zola Tonga "not meet up" immediately after both of them had been unceremoniously ejected out of the vehicle, when they knew that Annie, the only woman with them was in danger? Why? Because they met and rehearsed their stories that night as she was being killed. Who knows if Shrien took part in the murder? This is a massive miscarriage of justice and I hope that Annie's family gets justice one day, for the loss of their beautiful daughter.

However, I also understand the verdict of the trial because you need to be certain of his part in the plot, and because of the witnesses' poor account of the events, this saddly couldn't be established beyond a shadow of a doubt, and there should be no room for public opinion and just feelings of odd behaviour in making such a decision. If we had the text messages shared between Shrien and the taxi driver while together in the car with Anni there, this could really elucidate the whole thing. I wonder why these couldn't be retrieved.

@ Timonzaa Sims I think you should take pride in this judge. She did not say that he wasn't guilty, she made very clear that even the family of the victim and the public opinion believe in his guilt, she just CAN'T let stuff like that take away the fact that there was no hard evidence and the circumstantial "evidence" was just in no reasonable way enough to prove him guilty. She made clear that her job includes the hard fact that even her personal opinion can't play a role in the verdict. Judges with a spine like that are really rare and I would be pride of every single one like that in my own country. Justice is not listening to the public and even if that is hard to swallow.. it isn't even the question if someone COMMITTED a crime but if it is possible to prove that. Judges who put away people for crimes with so little evidence scare me far more than any judge that is ready to accept that securing right as best as you can so innocent ones don't end up behind bars can mean that a guilty one walks because there is just not enough evidence. I don't know if the husband was involved but I agree that they just failed to PROVE that he did. Crime is everywhere in the world.. that scares me less then the possibility to end up behind bars because I am the suspect the public opinion calls guilty and judges and juries that can't even think of going against this opinion.

I am having a hard time wrapping my head around how several things used as evidence in this could just be ignored to the point of a judge just throwing the whole case out the window. Sometimes what may seem like minor details end up (or SHOULD end up) being HUGE, especially when there is not a reasonable logical explanation for them. It doesn't make sense to me for it to be necessary to go behind closed doors and away from any cameras for him to hand the driver an envelope with money in it for simply driving them around when he obviously already has it in his hands at that moment. I also find it impossible to believe that there could be a reasonable explanation for 2 men in the same car to text instead of speaking to each other when the only other person in the car is the victim who just happened to be murdered that VERY NIGHT. Also, the text from the victim to her friend stating that they were already fighting and she already regrets getting married when shes still on her freakin honeymoon speaks VOLUMES louder than some of the reasons the judge used for letting this man get away with murder. I'll end with this one but there are MANY more things thjat make it impossible for me to believe that this man didn't just get away with murder. Highjackers and killers do NOT kill one witness and just let the other walk away. They either are not willing to actually take a life to get what they want and would put BOTH of them out, or could care less and kill both to eliminate any witnesses. I CANNOT believe that anyone with half a brain, much less a JUDGE could actually just ignore MANY things that just don't make logical sense, especially when it involves a beautiful young woman being robbed of the rest of her life. Even though the killers apparently lied and changed stories trying to protect their own selves, that does NOT change the other things that were used as COMPELLING evidence of the husbands guilt. I just hope that the fact that the judge dismissed this case instead of him being found not guil;ty by a jury will mean that he can legally be charged again if and when MORE evidence is discovered. I almost wish I hadnt even watched this video after finding out he walked free My heart breaks for the victims brother and parents whose lives were already ruined by losing her, but then to have to watch the person who is ultimately responsible for her death to walk free is a pain I can't even imagine.

Pretty weird how they let the husband go & not kill them both. You’d think that if this is just a random robbery, they wouldn’t want to leave any witnesses behind.

That's a very good point. Also, usually when someone is making a plea deal they flip on a co-conspirator who is already in custody, or at the very least someone the police have their eye on. Because a plea deal is only any good if you offer up something worthwhile. If you just make shit up, the police and the court are going to know and come down even harder on you because voiding a plea is just about the stupidest thing you can do. You'll just get extra charges of perjury, contempt of court and perverting the course of justice piled on top of you, putting you in an even worse situation than you started out with.

in the video they said there was evidence the gun went off by mistake and I think the fact that all the "hitmen" turned out to be complete liars throws massive massive doubt on wether he was involved or not. Im not saying its impossible or even unlikely but I just dont think there is enough to draw that conclusion.

Exactly. He is the mastermind of the plot and got away with murder because he is filthy rich. Period.

@@As-yx3pz just repeating what was said in the video. And even if the killers did excecute her doesn’t mean he was involved. I’ll admit it’s an incrediblely fishy scenario but I just think there are plenty of reasonable doubts and if I was a juror I wouldn’t be able to find him guilty .

Mike, I was just talking about this case the other day. I think you got this wrong. The husband ordered the hit and hence him netting the driver in places where there weren’t cameras, leaving the scene so soon, and delaying justice. Little pansy. I hope he has an awful life. He could’ve just said broken off the engagement. I wish you would’ve covered the a few of the witnesses. They solidified it for me. May he rot in hell. I felt awful for her family

@@celtasnake The Judge basically said that the charges against him were dropped due to the fact that there wasn't enough direct evidence to support his being involved in her murder. In other words, there wasn't enough evidence to connect him to her murder to have even have brought charges against him to arrest him to start with. That doesn't mean that he was found innocent beyond a reasonable doubt. There's a HUGE difference between those two things.

@@Nostalgic_1 Well even with reasonable doubt, that doesn't mean they're *found* innocent - just that they can't be proven guilty. IMO that's actually pretty much the same thing (though still support your point), as in both instances, there isn't enough evidence to convict, basically. In the eyes of the state they are innocent until proven guilty, but that also doesn't mean they are proven innocent.

“He knew him pretty well….inside and out” ! Also, Shrien looks sulky and bored in the wedding vids, maybe even angry. He really doesn’t want to be there, and can’t even be bothered to fake it for the camera. Mike didn’t do the life insurance dance, so it’s difficult to understand why he set the horrific crime in motion.
