Pistorius will be able to race in future, committee says

The International Paralympic Committeee will allow Oscar Pistorius to compete in the future after the movement’s most famous athlete was found guilty of the culpable homicide of his girlfriend.

South African double amputee runner Pistorius was said to have acted “negligently” when he fired shots through a toilet door, killing Reeva Steenkamp, but in the “belief that there was an intruder”, Judge Thokozile Masipa said in her verdict in Pretoria.
