PRETORIA (Reuters) - A South African judge is likely to decide on Friday whether to grant bail to "Blade Runner" Oscar Pistorius, with prosecutors arguing he is a cold-blooded killer and his lawyers saying he is far too famous to pose any sort of flight risk.
Pistorius' defence team say the athlete shot dead girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, 29, in a tragic mistake at his home in the early hours of February14 - Valentine's Day - and deserves bail to prepare for a case that has drawn worldwide attention.
