Oscar Pistorius Charged With Premeditated Murder Of Girlfriend

South African persecutor on Tuesday has charged Oscar Pistorius who killed his girlfriend on Valentin’s Day with premeditated murder. Persecutor Gerrie Nel said at a bailing hearing that the couple had had a shouting match and Steenkamp fled to the bathroom, down a seven – meter passage from the bedroom, and locked herself in. He said the 26-year-old Pistorius got up from bed and had to put on his prosthetic legs to reach the toilet door.

Nel told the court that the door was broken down after the shots were fired. Nel told the court that the killing was premeditated because Pistorius had planned to say that he thought he was shooting an intruder. Pistorius who appeared grim and solemn at the start of the hearing, broke down and sobbed softly as his lawyers argued that it was an accidental shooting.

Meanwhile, Steenkamp’s body was cremated today (Tuesday) at a memorial service in the south -coast port city of Port Elizabeth.
