Pistorius' brother faces own homicide trial


The brother of Oscar Pistorius, the Paralympic star on trial for murdering his girlfriend, is also facing charges for killing a woman, local media have reported.
The trial of Carl Pistorius, who is charged with culpable homicide, will start at the end of the month, Oscar's lawyer, Kenny Oldwage, confirmed to South Africa's eNCA TV.
The woman was reportedly killed on her motorcycle in a traffic accident in 2010, which the car being driven by Carl was also involved in.
His trial was supposed to have started earlier this month, one day before Oscar's began. It was unclear why it was delayed.
