Intro:
Oscar Pistorius supporters gathered outside the Pretoria Supreme Court, South Africa, on Monday morning (14th April) with bunches of white balloons as his murder trial continues.
Script:
SOUNDBITE (English) Dewald Reynders
"We are here this morning to support Oscar (Pistorius) and we want to make it very clear that we are also here to support the Steenkamp family as well, we have set up a Facebook profile called Support for Oscar and another one for both families".
SOUNDBITE (English) Rika Bothman
"I have always been an Oscar (Pistorius) supporter, I'm very proud of him also because he went out and he lived with passion and he lived his dream and I have the upmost respect for Oscar is because he is disabled and a lot of people because of his disability and the "why me, why Lord, why did you let that happen to me but he lived with that problem, I have the up most respect for him what is very painful for me and very hurtful for me is the fact that people judge him so badly now. At first they were absolute supporters and now they are completely bi-polar."
