Honeymoon murder suspect Dewani 'threw pizza party for 500 just days after his wife was murdered' - and was called 'Hitler' by her before their marriage

Honeymoon murder suspect Shrien Dewani threw a pizza party for 500 people days after allegedly masterminding a hit on his new wife, her family allege.

The millionaire businessman was also so controlling during his engagement to Anni Dewani that she described him as behaving 'like Hitler', her‎ father Vinod Hindocha has claimed.

 

Mr Hindocha said he was upset by the party - which took place six days after her murder in 2010 - because it was not in keeping with the family's Hindu religion. 

He said: 'I was offended by this as it is customary that no parties are held during the period of mourning yet Dewani did this stating that Anni loved pizza and chips and the pizza party was a memorial service to her.

All the elder people - not just we relatives - were disappointed and questioned that such a party had been planned.'

Dewani is accused of organising the murder of his wife in a staged carjacking as they drove through a Cape Town township.

Mr Hindocha told police how his Swedish daughter often fought with Dewani during their courtship.

After one row she told him 'not to regard her as a possession and threatened to leave him and return to Sweden,' he said.

'She also stated, "Pappa, he is like a Hitler - but don't worry - I will get married."'

On one occasion she was so upset by Dewani she announced she would 'manage her own life' after their wedding, he said.

‎Mr Hindocha also told how 'arrogant' Dewani upset the family after his daughter's death and allegedly 'manhandled' her body.
