The model's mother asks 'why?'
THE bereaved mother of Oscar Pistorius's slain girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp pleaded for answers about the death of "the most beautiful person who ever lived" following her Valentine's Day killing.
June Steenkamp was quoted by the Times newspaper in South Africa in a front page interview yesterday asking: "Why my little girl? Why did this happen? Why did he do this?"
"What for?" the mother told the newspaper.
The former cover girl will be cremated today in her hometown of Port Elizabeth when Pistorius is set to reappear in a Pretoria court for a bail hearing.
On Saturday a celebrity television show aired haunting footage of Steenkamp speaking about the need to leave a positive mark on life, words laden with unintended poignancy after her death.
"Not just your journey in life, but the way that you go out and make your exit is so important, you have either made an impact in a positive way or a negative way," Reeva Steenkamp said.
Her uncle Mike Steenkamp said the family had been overwhelmed with offers of help and sympathy.
"We have received a lot of condolences from all over South Africa and around the world as well. We have received a lot of support."
