A South African man has been sentenced to life in prison for the murder of Swedish woman Anni Dewani on her honeymoon in Cape Town in 2010.

Xolile Mngeni, 25, was convicted by a court in Cape Town of firing the shot that killed her.

His co-conspirators said they helped kill Mrs Dewani, 28, on the orders of her husband Shrien Dewani, who is from the English city of Bristol.

A British court has halted his extradition, citing his mental health.

Mr Dewani denies plotting to kill his wife.

Mrs Dewani's body was found with a single gunshot wound to the neck after she and her husband had been kidnapped while travelling in a taxi through the township of Gugulethu near Cape Town. He had been released unharmed.

Mngeni's trial had been repeatedly delayed while he had surgery to remove a brain tumour, but a judge ruled he was fit to face justice.

He is the third person to be sentenced over Mrs Dewani's murder.

Earlier, taxi driver Zola Tongo was sentenced to 18 years in prison following a plea bargain.

He alleged he was approached by Mr Dewani, who offered him about $2,100 (£1,340) to organise the killing and make it look like a carjacking.

Mziwamadoda Qwabe was sentenced to 25 years in prison after pleading guilty to shooting Mrs Dewani.

Tongo has said he recruited both Mngeni and Qwabe to carry out the killing.
