The South African government has confirmed that it would give an undertaking on how long honeymoon murder suspect Shrien Dewani would be kept in the country.
Dewani has come a significant step closer to removal from Britain to South Africa to face charges of organising the killing of his wife.
The Press Association reports that the South African government paved the way for imminent extradition by confirming it would give an undertaking on how long Dewani would be kept in the country without trial, if he continued to suffer mental health problems.
The confirmation looks set to bring to an end a three-year legal battle to block his removal, although there remains the possibility of a last-ditch appeal to the UK Supreme Court.
33-year old Dewani has been fighting removal from the UK to face proceedings over his wife Anni's death, until he has recovered from mental health problems, including severe depression and post-traumatic stress disorder.
