Anni Dewani’s father loses arm in lift accident
Vinod Hindocha, whose daughter was kidnapped and murdered by a gang in South Africa in 2010, had his right arm ripped off just below the shoulder as he was fixing a lift in his native Sweden. He was flown to hospital where the limb was reattached after 13 hours of surgery. Doctors believe he could regain full use of the arm.
His brother Ashok, who joined members of Anni’s family sitting through every day of evidence in the trial of her widower Shrien last year, said: “He told me he was in the lift as it went down and he could see his severed arm on the first floor as he went down to the ground floor.
