It  has been a day of disappointment in the South African paralympian Oscar Pistorius’ murder trial, after the case was postponed to 7th April following one of the assessor’s  falling  ill. This was supposed to be perhaps the most important day of this entire case as Pistorius was expected to take the witness stand and give his version of events that led to the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. The court was packed with media and both families and even the door that Pistorius shot his girlfriend  through was in place inside the courtroom.
