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.

He was taken immediately to jail. Both the prosecution and defence can appeal. Pistorius, 29, shot Reeva Steenkamp four times through a locked toilet door in February 2013. He admitted shooting her, but said he mistook Ms Steenkamp for an intruder and acted out of fear.
