Eyewitness News report that the cops have concluded their investigation of Oscar Pistorius, who shot and killed his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp. The state will now serve their indictment on him, ahead of his return to court on August 19 – Reeva’s 30th birthday.
According to Eyewitness News:
In less than a week from now, Pistorius and his defence team will get a full picture of what evidence the state has against him and how it will try and prove he murdered Steenkamp.
When the indictment is served, the state is also expected to disclose the docket of evidence to allow the accused to prepare a defence.
It remains unclear whether the defence team will bring an application when this happens.
Defence advocate Kenny Oldwage said on Monday he was still going to meet with his client and take instruction.
Pistorius’s return to court on 19 August falls on Steenkamp’s 30th birthday.
While there’s been no confirmation of a trial date, it’s expected to be set for the first quarter of next year.

Reeva Steenkamp was shot and killed
by Oscar Pistorius
Pistorius spent Sunday kayacking in Hermanus, just an hour out of Cape Town. This comes a couple months after he was spotted looking at Audi R8s with an unknown woman in Rivonia.
According to YOU:
The 26-year-old Blade Runner was seen kayaking yesterday morning at Hermanus’ Old Harbour with three unknown male friends.
The murder accused was seen “chatting briefly with the men before they launched their kayaks into the ocean.He looked relaxed, wearing flesh-coloured prosthetic legs instead of his trademark carbon-fibre blades, a life jacket and board shorts,” reports the Daily Voice newspaper.
Oscar has been spotted numerous times after the fatal shooting of his girlfriend, this after his family released a statement saying he’s been praying for and mourning Reeva every moment of the day. He was spotted twice in April, first at a private party at the Kitchen Bar restaurant in Fourways then later in the month training in his carbon-fibre blades at the University of Pretoria.
In June he was also reported to have visited an Audi dealership in Rivonia twice with an unknown woman, browsing Audi R8s.
