Finally, the high profile seven months trail of Oscar Pistorius, the South African athlete who murdered his model girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp on February 14 2013, is over at last, with him being put away for five years today – but could spend as little as ten months behind bars, legal observers believe.

The 27year old athlete, who became quite famous as a blade runner wiped his eyes as he was handed a five-year prison term after the judge ruled that a non-custodial sentence would send the ‘wrong message to the community’, Dailymail reports.
The athlete was found guilty of culpable homicide, but was acquitted of murder after shooting Miss Steenkamp four times through a toilet cubicle door at his home last year – He is expected to be sent to a high-security wing at the gang-ridden Pretoria Central Prison, where one criminal kingpin has already threatened to ‘take him out’.
Fair judgement???
