Oscar Pistorius defence witness to testify he 'screams like a girl' in bid to discredit neighbour's claims Reeva Steenkamp cried out before he began firing his gun at her

June Steenkamp (top left) cried as she waited for the start of the trial to determine what happened the night her daughter Reeva (bottom right) was killed. Oscar Pistorius' advocate Barry Roux told the court in Pretoria he intended to call a witness to testify that Pistorius's screams sounded like a woman's. Michell Burger, who lives on a neighbouring estate, had told the court that she heard a woman's screams as the athlete's model girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp was killed on Valentine's Day last year. The double-amputee athlete (pictured leaving the high court in Pretoria) had earlier pleaded not guilty to murdering Miss Steenkamp wearing a dark grey suit and black tie.
