Late Reeva Steenkamp-s mum June and father Barry yesterday expressed relief at the five-year jail sentence awarded to their daughter-s killer paralympian Oscar Pistorius by the Pretoria High Court. Reeva 29 was shot dead by Pistorius in his bathroom on Valentine-s Day 2013 in the early hours of the morning.


It-s over: Late Reeva Steenkamp-s father Barry Steenkamp back right and mother June Steenkamp left with their lawyer Dup de Bruyn right leave Pretoria High Court after the trial of Oscar Pistorius who was been sentenced to five years jail yesterday 

Pistorius claimed he shot through the closed bathroom door suspecting her to be an intruder. Last month, Pretoria High Court judge Thokozile Masipa ruled that Pistorius had not intention of killing Steenkamp, but acted negligently nevertheless.
