<p>The British newlywed accused of hiring a hitman to kill his bride was back home on bail amid claims in the High Court that the &#8220;net was closing in&#8221; on him.</p>
<p>Wealthy businessman Shrien Dewani, 30, was released from Wandsworth Prison after his family came up with £250,000 security.</p>
<p>The move came despite prosecutors telling the High Court there was significant new evidence demonstrating a &#8220;very powerful&#8221; case against Dewani, who is wanted by South African police for conspiracy to murder his new wife Anni, 28.</p>
<p>Prosecutor Ben Watson said &#8220;the net was closing in&#8221; and he should not be granted bail &#8220;even on the most stringent conditions&#8221;.</p>
<p>Dewani, from Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol, faces electronic tagging, home curfew and having to report daily to the police pending further extradition hearings.</p>
<p>His family welcomed the judge&#8217;s decision, saying in a joint statement: &#8220;We are all delighted that the courts have consistently upheld Shrien Dewani&#8217;s right to bail.&#8221;</p>
<p>His wife was found dead in the back of an abandoned taxi in a Cape Town township with a single bullet wound to her neck on November 13.</p>
<p>Dewani was arrested this week after the South African authorities issued a warrant as the first stage to seeking his extradition.</p>
<p>The warrant came after taxi driver Zola Tongo accused Dewani of offering to pay 15,000 rand (£1,400) for his wife&#8217;s murder and ordering it to appear like a bungled carjacking as they drove through the notorious township of Gugulethu.</p>
<p>At Friday&#8217;s court hearing, Mr Watson said CCTV footage of meetings between Dewani and Tongo, without Dewani&#8217;s wife present, supported the taxi driver&#8217;s account of the murder conspiracy. Other footage showed Tongo &#8220;surreptitiously&#8221; receiving &#8220;a white, plastic packet&#8221; from Dewani three days after the murder.</p>
