<p><br /> A South African state prosecutor has accused a Briton of planning the murder of his wife during their honeymoon in Cape Town last month.<br /> </p><p><br /> State prosecutor Rodney de Kock told the Western Cape High Court that taxi driver Zola Tongo, arrested after the murder, was allegedly offered 15,000 rand (£1,300) by businessman Shrien Dewani as part of a plot to kill his wife Anni, who was a Swedish national living in Britain.<br /> </p><p><br /> "The deceased was murdered at the instance of her husband," de Kock said in reading out a plea bargain agreement in which Tongo pleaded guilty to murder. He was sentenced to an effective 18 years in prison.<br /> </p><p><br /> Dewani, who is in Briton, was not immediately available to comment on the accusation by the prosecutor.<br /> </p><p><br /> The court heard that Dewani approached Tongo shortly after arriving in South Africa and helped mastermind the murder.<br /> </p><p><br /> "The alleged hijacking was in fact not a hijacking, but part of a plan of subterfuge which the husband of the deceased and I designed to conceal the true facts," De Kock said, reading from Tongo's plea bargain.<br /> </p><p><br /> Anni Dewani was found dead after she and her husband Shrien were hijacked in Gugulethu township - a high crime area about 15 miles from Cape Town's city centre. She died of a single gunshot wound to the neck.<br /> </p>
