The inimitable Barry Bateman and Mandy Wiener form EWN have revealed this morning that the state will be pursuing a life sentence as the mandatory minimum punishment in their case against murder accused Oscar Pistorius.
Pistorius shot and killed his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp in his Pretoria home on Valentine’s Day this year.
The state will also argue that even if Pistorius version – that he thought Steenkamp to be an intruder – is believed, by firing four gunshots blindly through the locked toilet cubicle door, he certainly had intent to kill the person behind it.
Pistorius will face trial in the North Gauteng High Court on 3 March next year.
