Anni Dewani's family in court for Shrien Dewani's extradition hearing Relatives of a woman allegedly murdered by her husband during their honeymoon in South Africa were at court today for the start of proceedings to decide whether he will be extradited to face trial over her death. Anni Dewani, 28, was shot dead as she travelled in a taxi on the outskirts of Cape Town in November 2010 and so far three men have been jailed for her murder. It is claimed that her husband Shrien Dewani orchestrated her killing, which he denies. Today, at Westminster Magistrates' Court, her father Vinod Hindocha, sister Ami Denborg and brother Anish Hindocha were watching from the public gallery with other relatives as a five-day extradition hearing began. Shrien Dewani, 33, was excused from attending the hearing today but his father Prakash and brother Preyen came to the court. He is being treated for post-traumatic stress disorder and depression at a hospital in Bristol, and there have been fluctuations in the state of his mental health. His lawyers previously claimed that he would be a high suicide risk if extradited, and his human rights may be violated due to the risk of being violently attacked and sexually assaulted in South African prison and potentially contracting HIV or Aids. Dewani was ordered to return to the country in 2011, but this was successfully appealed against and judges ordered that Chief Magistrate Howard Riddle must look again at the case. Hugo Keith QC, representing the South African government, began proceedings by summarising the history of the case. He said appeal judges found that South African authorities offered assurances that Dewani would be kept in a single cell if he returns, and therefore would be at less risk of attack. The hearing continues.
