Paralympic sprinter Oscar Pistorius has insisted that he did not intend to kill his model girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp or 'anyone else' when he shot through the locked bathroom door at his Pretoria home last year, in his testimony at the North Gauteng High Court on Wednesday.

Pistorius is into his third day of testimony, and was giving an account of what he says are the events in the moments leading up to the shooting that put him on trial for murder.

Stating that Steenkamp died in his arms, Pistorius had earlier claimed that he was filled with terror moments before he shot his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp to death on Valentine's Day last year, during his testimony at the murder trial that included him removing his prosthetic legs to illustrate the events that led to the fatal shooting.
