The footage captured by a CCTV camera shows Steenkamp dressed in a different top before entering Pistorius's house. The top that Steenkamp's body had worn post her death was a different one which points out that Pistorius might have dressed up her corpse as she lay dead in his apartment.
Investigators have alleged that Pistorius changed her top as the gunshots wounds did not match up with the top she was wearing.
Recently, forensic experts had claimed that Steenkamp was hit by a cricket bat before being shot dead. The marks and injuries on her back suggested that she was brutally hit with the tip of a cricket bat. Moreover, the marks on the twisted handle of the toilet also point out that their had been a struggle between the couple before the apparent murder.
