The National Prosecution Authority will present its case to a one-day hearing at the Supreme Court of Appeal in Bloemfontein.
The Paralympic athlete shot dead Reeva Steenkamp in the early hours of Valentine’s Day in 2013, when he fired four times through the door of his bedroom toilet – after he says he mistook her for a burglar.
