BBC to air unseen footage of honeymoon murder

BBC One is to air a special programme about the honeymoon murder of Anni Dewani, including unseen CCTV footage, this week.

The programme features previously unseen footage allegedly showing Shrien Dewani making a payment following his new wife’s death to the taxi driver who has admitted organising her murder.

The footage was filmed by security cameras inside the luxury Cape Race hotel in Cape Town and is said to show Dewani handing a package to Zola Tongo, 31, following the November 2010 tragedy.

Dewani, 32, continues to fight extradition to South Africa, where prosecutors are determined to charge him with murder and put him on trial alongside two local men accused of being the gunmen.

Panorama ‘The Honeymoon Murder’ will air on BBC One at 21:00 on Thursday 29th March.
