Former murder suspect Shrien Dewani has left Cape Town after being cleared of plotting his wife's death on their honeymoon four years ago.

The millionaire businessman faced a barrage of questions from reporters as he headed straight for the boarding gate.

He is due to fly to Gatwick via Dubai and is expected to land in the UK tomorrow morning.
