True Crime Recaps

What really happened to Anni Dewani?


Listen Later

What should've been the honeymoon of her dreams became a total nightmare. Anni Dewani and her new husband wealthy businessman Shrien Dewani were surrounded by hijackers in South Africa while touring the country in a taxi. Shrien was ejected from the vehicle, assaulted and robbed. Anni was taken, and her body was found later in the back of a taxi with a single bullet wound kill shot.This week, Amy and Chris detail the events leading up to and including Anni's murder, as well as the many characters who have emerged as suspects, including her husband with whom Anni was reported to have a very rocky relationship. So who was responsible for Anni's killing? Was this a case of a random hijacking by Mziwamadoda Qwabe and Xolile Mngeni, with the aide of hotel receptionist Monde Mbolombo, which is the official story? Did the taxi driver, Zola Tongo, have something to do with it? Did her husband plan the killing to cover up a secret relationship? Or was this something else entirely? Despite the arrests and trials, we still don't have all of the answers.Get 10% off your first month by visiting our sponsor at BetterHelp.com/recapsSend your true crime suggestions to hello@truecrimerecaps!Don’t forget to subscribe to the podcast for free wherever you're listening or by using this link: https://bit.ly/TrueCrimeRecapsPodcastIf you want to support the show, and get all the episodes ad-free go to https://truecrimerecaps.supercast.tech/If you like the show, telling a friend about it would be helpful!
