Oscar Pistorius bags 6 years behind bars for Reeva Steenkamp murder .

Posted by: Lolade in Foreign Comments Off on Oscar Pistorius bags 6 years behind bars for Reeva Steenkamp murder .

South African Olympic athlete Oscar Pistorius has been sentenced to six years in prison for the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp in 2013. The verdict comes after his initial five-year conviction for manslaughter was changed to murder last December on appeal.
