BBC Three will film a documentary about the fatal shooting of Oscar Pistorius's girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.

BBC Three will reportedly broadcast a documentary about the death of Oscar Pistorius's girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.

The Paralympic champion has been charged with the premeditated murder of the 29-year-old model, who was shot dead by Pistorius through a bathroom door at his home in Pretoria.

"BBC Three is never afraid to tackle current affairs and we are committed to showing bold, thought-provoking programmes for 16-34s," The Sun quotes Controller of BBC Three Zai Bennett as saying.

"Mentorn will be producing this programme at incredible speed, and together with presenter Rick Edwards, I'm sure they will deliver a documentary that will bring a new angle to this ever-developing news story."

Pistorius, who has been granted bail, could stand trial for murder in South Africa within the next six months to a year.
