Honeymoon murder suspect Shrien Dewani has lost his latest legal battle to block his extradition to South Africa.
He argued he should not be forced from the UK to face trial over his wife's killing until he has recovered from mental health problems, including depression and post-traumatic stress disorder.
Dewani, who is compulsorily detained in hospital under the Mental Health Act, denies any involvement in her death.
He is accused of ordering the killing of his 28-year-old wife Anni, who was shot as the couple travelled in a taxi on the outskirts of Cape Town in November 2010.
A panel of judges ruled in January it would not be "unjust and oppressive" to extradite him if the South African government gave an undertaking over how long he would be kept in the country without trial if his illness continues.
The South African authorities have now given the necessary assurances, but Dewani's lawyers returned to London's High Court to challenge the undertaking before judges.
They also asked for permission to take Dewani's case to the Supreme Court - the UK's highest court.
But the judges rejected complaints made about the adequacy of the undertaking and also refused to give the go-ahead for the case to go to the Supreme Court.
