Fairytale Gone Wrong


Boy meets girl through mutual friends. Falls in love with her, they go out on their first date to watch Lion King. Boy proposes girl at Ritz Hotel with a �25,000 diamond ring. They get married in a lavish ceremony and live happily ever after. Sounds like a fairy tale, right? Well, not every fairy tale has a happy ending...and this one in particular didn't quite end the way it was meant to be. 


This is the story of Anni Dewani, a 28 yr old Swedish-born Indian woman, who was kidnapped and murdered during her honeymoon in South Africa, whilst taking a trip with her husband Shrien Dewani through Gugulethu township near Cape Town on 13 November 2010. This may sound like a usual case of kidnapping & robbery, given the fact that South Africa is infamous for such cases.

But this was a plan hatched by her husband, who wanted to get rid of her. The driver of the cab later admitted that he had been paid 15000 rand by Shrien to murder his wife. And now there are alleged reports of Mr. Shrien Dewani being a gay! For heaven's sake why on earth did he have to marry this girl if he was not interested in the first place? And what did he get by getting her killed? 

He still claims that he is innocent and that he had nothing to do with his wife's murder. Such cases just leave me without words, full of anger and disgust. The timeline & other details of the case can be found here:
