British businessman Shrien Dewani has now left Cape Town after being acquitted for the murder of his wife on their honeymoon four years ago.

Dewani was suspected of paying hitmen to kill his newly wed wife during their honeymoon travels to Cape Town in South Africa in 2010 and making it look like a car robbery, according to Reuters.

Dewani was extradited this year from Britain to face trial in South Africa, but Judge Jeanette Traverso said evidence in the prosecution's case was insufficient.

"The application is granted. The accused is found not guilty on this charge," Judge Jeanette Traverso said in court.

Anni's family said they are not satisfied with the decision because Dewani did not have to stand trial, Reuters reported.

In the testimonies, the three suspects' serving time gave contradictory accounts of what happened compared to Dewani's testimony.

Traverso said "the evidence provided by two hitmen also convicted of Anni Dewani's murder contradict Mr. Tongo on about every aspect of their interaction."

After being cleared of his wife's murder on Monday, Dewani left South Africa on Tuesday on a flight to Dubai, but it is not known whether he is going to take a connecting flight to Britain from there.

Prosecutors on the case said Dewani allegedly paid 15,000 rand, or $1,300, to plot with taxi driver Zola Tongo and other hitmen to kidnap and then kill his wife Anni.

The other hitmen involved said Dewani was part of the plot in an attempt to receive less jail time. The three others involved are all currently serving long term jail sentences.
