Why was Shrien Dewani released before Anni?

It has been established that this was not a rape case. That makes his earlier release even more perplexing. If they wanted to rob the couple and make off they would have dumped the pair in the middle of nowhere. If rape was the issue then dumping or even killing the husband is logical. But if it is to keep a hostage that would be insane. They are allowing a witness to raise the alarm and keeping a hostage that - at best - can buy them a bit of time when the police corner them. Releasing him before her in the way it was done is totally illogical.

Im only bumping this because it was the nearest thread title related to what I wanted to post. This is an interesting analysis of SD's statement...if you are interested in this investigative methodology....in its infancy much like analysis of  microexpressions, still, all oak trees grow from acorns they say

Nothing about his story makes any sense whatsoever

I lived in Kenya.

We were always told if you are a target of a robbery give them everything they want, otherwise they will just shoot you.

There is no way they would have left a witness.

Yes and shoot the man first as he is the biggest risk for them.
