Pistorius had no mental disorder -Report
Oscar Pistorius did not have a mental disorder when he killed his girlfriend, a psychological report said as his murder trial resumed.
The report was presented following an evaluation into his mental health.
His defence team has argued he was suffering from an anxiety disorder at the time of the shooting.
The athlete denies deliberately killing Reeva Steenkamp. He says he shot her accidentally in a state of panic after mistaking her for an intruder.
Both prosecution and defence have accepted the results of the report.
Pistorius would not have been criminally responsible for the shooting if the report had stated that he was mentally ill, says the BBC’s Milton Nkosi who is in court.
