Mmm...isn't it strange that ZT already stated earlier that when he picked up Dewani at the airport he wasn't alone and his wife was with him. But then he said 'The gentleman came out with a lady, a beautiful one'. The way he said it was as though he had never met her before. Well of course he had, but just seemed an odd thing to say.
It may be odd that he said it but maybe not odd WHAT he said:
- The night they arrived she might have looked awful after traveling - no make-up, messy hair, jeans, t-shirt, what have you. Oops, I'm describing myself after air travel!!
- The next time she was all dolled up and probably looked like a beauty queen.
Plus, maybe SD was nasty or offish on the plane and now he had been nice.
So, in that sense he may not have met her before.
Also, when they first arrived, ZT said only SD spoke so maybe he had no reason to look at her very closely, and she just hopped out the cab and went into the hotel.
The night of the murder, ZT thought he was meeting a woman business associate, yes? When I think of women business associates, I don't think of elegant beauty queens, which, I'll admit is a bias on my part from another generation.
