The South African sprinter Oscar Pistorius has been charged with the murder of his 30-year-old girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp.
Following a revelatory police conference we have learned
that Pistorius is due to appear in a Pretoria court later today and that
there had been reports from neighbours of shouting and screaming coming
from the house earlier in the evening.
Police spokeswoman Denise Beukes also revealed the authorities had
been called to the house on previous occasions after reports of "a
domestic nature".
The South African police service dismissed previous reports that
Pistorius had mistaken his girlfriend for an intruder, saying that these
reports had not come from them.
It is believed Steenkamp was shot four times.
