Two men in court over South Africa honeymoon murder

Mrs Dewani was shot in the neck

Two more men have appeared in court in relation to the murder of a woman on her honeymoon in South Africa.

Anni Dewani, 28, was shot after the taxi she and her husband, Shrien, were travelling in was hijacked. Mr Dewani, 31, from Bristol, was released unhurt.

All three men arrested in connection with the case are due to appear in court in South Africa on 29 November.

They face charges of murder, robbery with aggravating circumstances and kidnapping.

A spokesman for the South African Police Service said the legal team of the third person to be charged, Zola Tonga, 31, from Bothasig, were consulting with the director of public prosecutions in Western Cape about a possible plea agreement.

The spokesman added: "The state also intends to finalise the identity parade during this week. The investigation continues and, as it unfolds, police will determine if there are any other suspects involved."

Publicist Max Clifford, who is Mr Dewani's spokesman, said that his client had not been asked to return to South Africa.

'Keen for justice'

In a statement, he said: "At this stage there has been no request for Shrien to go out to South Africa for an identity parade.

"As the primary witness in this ordeal, Shrien is fully co-operating with the South African police on a daily basis and helping them with their inquiries.

"Shrien is currently grieving the death of his new bride Anni and abiding by Hindu rituals post death and trying to come to terms with this awful tragedy.

"He is keen for justice to be done and the criminals caught."

Swedish national Mrs Dewani and her husband, from Westbury-on-Trym, had been married for two weeks when the kidnapping happened near Cape Town on 13 November.

The kidnappers released Mr Dewani and the taxi driver unharmed, but Mrs Dewani was found dead in the taxi in the Khayelitsha township the following morning.

South African police said she had been shot in the back of the neck.

The first man to be arrested appeared at Wynberg Regional Court in Cape Town on 18 November.

A second man was held the same day, with the third arrest made on 20 November.
