Shrien Dewani finds love with a man four years after being cleared of killing wife

Millionaire care home owner Shrien Dewani has ruffled a few feathers by taking his boyfriend to Mumbai, the place where he married Anni Dewani.

The family of Anni, who was murdered in South Africa just days after her marriage to Shrien, told Daily Mail that they are hurt as Shrien took his boyfriend, Brazilian-born photographer Glendison Lopez Martins to Mumbai, India.


Anni's father Vinod Hindocha said: “He has been to Mumbai with his boyfriend and that hurts us greatly. That was the place that Anni married him. I would have thought that he would keep that place in his heart especially for that memory.”

Shrien walked free in 2014 after being found not guilty in his wife’s murder. Anni was shot dead as the couple toured a rough suburb of Cape Town on November 13, 2010.

Three men were given jail terms for their role in the killing. According to them, Shrien arranged the hijacking in which he would survive and his wife would be killed.

Shrien has denied this allegation.

Anni’s family was unaware of Shrien’s sexual orientation before the marriage and it was on the first day of his murder trial that they heard him confess that he paid male prostitutes for sex.

“He kept his gay secret from my daughter and her family. How could he have had it in his heart to do that? It was an utter disgrace.

“Now I learn that he has fallen for another man. That is no surprise. I am not against gay people in any way at all. Just this man.

“I would have thought that he would keep Mumbai in his heart especially for that memory. But no. He goes there with his gay lover and parades him around. I hate that day he married her. And I’ll never be able to see Mumbai with the same eyes.”

Shrien has been in a relationship with his new boyfriend for about 18 months. Pictures of them partying in Ibiza as well as in India have been made online.
