<p>A British newlywed accused of paying to have his bride killed on their honeymoon in South Africa has been arrested under a South African warrant.</p>
<p>Shrien Dewani, whose wife Anni was murdered last month as they visited a South African township, was held on Tuesday night on suspicion of conspiring to murder his wife, the Metropolitan Police said.</p>
<p>The 30-year-old businessman from Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol, was accused of ordering her death by taxi driver Zola Tongo as he was sentenced for his part in the killing in a South African court. The Dewani family described the allegation as &#8220;ludicrous&#8221;.</p>
<p>Mr Dewani surrendered himself at a police station in Bristol, the Met Police said. The force said he was arrested under a Provisional Arrest Warrant at the request of the South African authorities on suspicion of conspiring to murder his 28-year-old wife.</p>
<p>The businessman will appear from custody at City of Westminster Magistrates Court on Wednesday.</p>
<p>The family of a British man accused of paying to have his new wife murdered on honeymoon in South Africa has dismissed the claims as &#8220;totally ludicrous&#8221;.</p>
<p>Taxi driver Zola Tongo said Shrien Dewani, 31, offered £1,300 for the killing of 28-year-old Anni, just hours after the couple arrived in the country.</p>
<p>Mrs Dewani was shot dead by gunmen a day later as the pair were driven through the impoverished Gugulethu township in Cape Town.</p>
<p>Tongo&#8217;s dramatic allegation formed part of a plea agreement drawn up with prosecutors at Cape High Court, where he was jailed for 18 years for his part in the killing on November 13.</p>
<p>Mr Dewani has always denied any involvement in his wife&#8217;s death and his spokesman Max Clifford described the accusations as the latest in a string of false allegations against him.</p>
