Carl Pistorius speaks out
Family members of murder convicted Oscar Pistorius set the record straight on social media.
Carl reiterated on his Twitter account that media reports claiming Oscar had injured himself were untrue and sensational.
“I know there are reports saying that he had tried to injure himself – they are completely untrue and sensational. All other crazy and unreliable news stories are also baseless,” Carl said in his tweet.
He added that the former Paralympic athlete had slipped in his prison cell but that it was not serious.
“Please do not believe the media reports. It was great to see him. He sends love to everyone, especially Aimee,” Carl tweeted.
