THE parents of slain Port Elizabeth model Reeva Steenkamp broke down over the loss of their daughter during an indepth TV appearance last night, describing their battle to come to terms with their ordeal.

Their greatest need now, they say, is for Olympic star Oscar Pistorius to tell them exactly what happened the night he shot her.

"All I want, and I need that to be able to move on, is that I hear the honest truth about what happened," grieving father Barry Steenkamp said directly after M-Net's Carte Blanche programme aired.

One's first response on hearing a sound from the bathroom is surely to determine if it's not your spouse/partner by checking the bed first. If she's there or not you still call at the bathroom door before shooting through it. Anyhow one should be able to be secure in a 5 million home.
