Dramatic pictures from
inside the home of paralympian Oscar Pistorius — including the blood-covered bathroom
where he shot his lover Reeva Steenkamp — have been revealed.
It is the first time the
public has seen the actual room where the athlete's model girlfriend was
killed.
Images show a panel missing
from the toilet door and two police markers below the handle which indicate
bullet holes below the level of the handle.
It is likely the defence
will argue this backs up the double-amputee runner's claims that he was walking
on his STUMPS — and shooting from low down at what he thought was an intruder.
Oscar claims he raced to the
bathroom with his gun after hearing a noise. He says he was horrified to then
discover he had shot his girlfriend dead on St Valentine's Day.
Prosecutors say Reeva ran
into the bathroom after a row and he deliberately shot her through the door
after taking the time to put on his prosthetic legs.
Other pictures show
footprints through trails of blood on the floor of Pistorius's luxury home in
Pretoria, South Africa. There are more blood stains on the walls and a cream
sofa
He says he carried Reeva's
body downstairs after calling for help.
The athlete has been granted
bail while he awaits trial for murder.
