VZ: What does the God, Ganesh do? SM: I don't know, My Lady. I'm not a priest. I'm not sure.

What kind of question is that? Where is VZ going with this?

Sneha takes a sip of water before answering next question she's been testifying since before lunch.

VZ: Why was the telegram not sent on the 8th but only on the 27th of May? SM: I do not know, My Lady.
 
Sneha also told the court she was certain Anni wasn't with Dewani in December because 'That's why we didn't meet them in Bangkok'.

#DewaniTrial @eNCAnews VZ: Does that not indicate that the event on the 7th was not an engagement? SM: No, My Lady. Anni's parents explained

VZ: Was this an arranged marriage or was this because of the love the 2 ppl had for each other.

SM: Anni had doubts. I helped compose the email to Shrien. After that, they went ahead with the engagement.
 
Sneha's had to tell VZ at least three times, 'I'm not a priest', as she's been badgered to explain Hindu wedding customs.
 
Leigh-Anne Jansen ‏@LA_JANSEN 2m2 minutes ago
VZ repeats the question. SM: My Lady, it wasn't an arranged marriage. Anni emailed Shrien.

SM: She had her doubts, but decided to go ahead with the engagement.

SM: She went ahead with the engagement after Shrien said he would change his ways and he loved her.

Van Zyl: Did she love him? SM: Yes, she did, in the beginning.
 
Leigh-Anne Jansen ‏@LA_JANSEN 2m2 minutes ago
VZ: Maybe I should ask this directly. Did she love him? SM: Yes she did, My Lady.

VZ again reads the email from Shrien to Anni, contained in his plea explanation.

VZ: Is this the email you had in mind? SM: Yes, My Lady. That was the response.

VanZyl reading email Shrien sent Anni...describing how she makes him laugh...how much he loves her. @ANN7tv

Dewani wanted to be with Anni forever and he found her to be very precious, he also didn't want to see her unhappy.
 
Nashira Davids ‏@nashhannibal 3m3 minutes ago
There was a lot of begging and pleading from Dewani who was described as "too controlling". He promised Anni he would change.
 
Sneha insists despite their differences, Anni was still in love with Dewani when she married him.

VZ: Was she still in love with him in the time leading up to the wedding. SM: They had their issues, but yes.

VZ: Was she still in love with him in October? SM: Yes

VZ: The accused will tell the court that they had their differences but they were still in love with each other.
 
Oh no. Originally Anni didn't want to go to South Africa. Sneha encouraged her to go.
 
Sneha insists despite their differences, Anni was still in love with Dewani when she married him.

Makes it all the more sad, Anni was genuine, she wanted a husband and a lover, not a friend. He made out the 'lover' was going to be part of the marriage, but she's now dead, so......
 
After the wedding, Anni told Sneha she didn't want to live with Dewani.
 
Leigh-Anne Jansen ‏@LA_JANSEN 4m4 minutes ago
SM: My Lady, Anni & Shrien had lots of problems. That's why after India, we discussed possible divorce.

SM: I told her maybe she should go to SA to sort out their differences. I told her, if you can't stay with him...cont
I will put money in your Swedish account & come home.
