South African Olympic athlete, Oscar Pistorius, has been sentenced to six
years in prison for the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, in 2013.
The verdict
comes after his initial five-year conviction for manslaughter was changed to
murder last December on appeal.
He was taken
immediately to jail. Both the prosecution and defence can appeal.
The 29 year
old Pistorius, shot Reeva Steenkamp four times through a locked toilet door in
February 2013.
