Shrien Dewani – who was extradited from the UK to face trial – always denied arranging the murder of his wife Anni in 2010.

He argued she was killed during a botched carjacking.

A judge in South Africa has ruled the prosecution's case didn't stand up to scrutiny, and the evidence was riddled with contradictions and inconsistencies.

Anni Dewani's family – who were in court – said they felt justice had not been done.
