    Oscar Pistorius Jail Term for Killing Reeva Steenkamp more than Doubled

    A South African court has increased Olympic athlete Oscar Pistorius’ jail sentence for killing his girlfriend to 13 years and five months.

    Prosecutors had argued that the six-year term for murdering Reeva Steenkamp was “shockingly light”.

    Ms Steenkamp’s parents were “emotional” as they watched the ruling at home on TV, a spokeswoman said.

    “They feel there has been justice for Reeva. She can now rest in peace,” Tania Koen told Associated Press.

    “But at the same time, people think this is the end of the road for them… the fact is they still live with Reeva’s loss every day,” Ms Koen said.

    Oscar Pistorius claimed he shot dead Ms Steenkamp on Valentine’s Day in 2013 after mistaking her for a burglar.
