Pistorius 'had no mental illness at time of killing'

Tuesday, July 01 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    A panel of mental health experts has concluded that Oscar Pistorius was not suffering from a mental illness when he killed girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp in his home last year, the chief prosecutor at the athlete's murder trial said on Monday.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Gerrie Nel, prosecutor:

    "Mr Pistorius did not suffer from a mental defect or a mental illness at the time of the commission of the offence that would have rendered him criminally not responsible for the offences charged. 6.2: Mr Pistorius was capable of appreciating the wrongfulness of his act and of acting in accordance of an appreciation of the wrongfulness of his act."
