Oscar does not scream like a woman: Ex
Updated | By Lonwabo Miso
Oscar Pistorius does not scream like a woman, his ex-girlfriend told the High Court in Pretoria on Friday.
"It is the accused's case that if he screams, and if he's really anxious, he screams like a woman," prosecutor Gerrie Nel said to witness Samantha Taylor.
"That is not true," the willowy blonde replied.
When asked by Nel when she had heard Pistorius scream before, she said she had previously heard him scream "at myself".
Pistorius's lawyer has previously argued that on the night he shot dead Reeva Steenkamp, the woman whom witnesses say they heard screaming was in fact Pistorius screaming like a woman.
Taylor told the court she met Pistorius at a rugby game in 2010 and started dating him the next year, when she was 17.
Asked by Nel why the relationship ended, she replied: "He cheated on me with Reeva Steenkamp."
Pistorius is accused of the murder of model and law graduate Steenkamp. He is also charged with illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition, and two counts of discharging a firearm in public.
He allegedly fired a shot from a Glock pistol under a table at a Johannesburg restaurant in January 2013.
In September 2010 he allegedly shot through the open sunroof of a car with his 9mm pistol while driving with friends in Modderfontein.
