Oscar Pistorius Allegedly Fights In A Night Club

A Paralympian Oscar Pistorius, who is accused of killing his girlfriend, has allegedly been involved in a fight at a VIP nightclub on July 14, 2014.

The Blade runner was reportedly said to have had a face-off with one Mr Jahed Mortimer who intentionally spat at him over his ongoing murder case. It was gathered that the drunk and aggressive Pistorious could not swallow every bit of what Mr Mortimer was saying, hence, the attack. Mortimer has been reported to be a friend of former soccer player Mark Batchelor who has a long time feud with Pistorious; this, everyone believed could have been a way of getting at Oscar in a way.

However, one of the club managers, Perry Mermigas has refuted the news going round that Oscar fought at the club, saying he was with the murder-charged and his cousin where they sat silently talking over a few bottle of drinks before leaving an hour later. He revealed that it was Oscar's first time at the club which could have enhanced such untrue story considering the fact that he has an ongoing popular murder case.

Although, the double-amputee who was accused of mental illness is few weeks away from hearing his fate after denying the murder of his law graduate girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, who was 29, he has tried to take succour in tweeting and also having a bottle of drinks out with his cousin which has now pushed him into these untrue insinuations.

Sequel to the untrue news, Cricket sensation Kevin Pietersen took to twitter to blast his fellow sportsman.

He tweeted: "Standing trial for murder and he's tweeting and going clubbing...surely this cannot be happening?"

The cricketer also made reference to four bizarre tweets Pistorius had posted the previous day, quoting the bible and showing pictures of himself with amputee children.

Wow - Oscar Pistorius starts tweeting yesterday and now being reported to be involved in a nightclub incident on Sat. Head down me thinks!"

He appears to reply to one follower who said 'That's South Africa for you' by blasting: "No it's not! It's blatant disrespect for everyone still mourning the tragedy!

The trial resumes on August 8th and 9th for final arguments and then the judge will retire for several weeks to decide the verdict.
