Man Accused Of Killing His Wife On Their Honeymoon Freed

A judge sitting in South Africa has dismissed the murder case against Shrien Dewani, accused of being an accomplice in the plot to murder his wife during their honeymoon in South Africa in 2010.

In her ruling, Judge Jeanette Traverso said the evidence presented by the prosecution fell “far below the threshold” of what a reasonable court could convict on.

She said the evidence of the prosecution’s main witness, taxi driver Zola Tongo, was “riddled with contradictions” and “highly debatable”, according to a BBC report.
