In late 2020, Pistorius’ longtime friend said that he was begging for her family’s forgiveness. The prosecution alleged that Pistorius intentionally shot his girlfriend four times after the couple had an argument on Valentine’s Day.

They are not emotionally prepared, but are prepared to meet Oscar," Koen continued, adding that "they accept[ed] the day [would] come" when Pistorius would be eligible for parole.

They had believed he would only be eligible in 2023. In July 2021, he became eligible for parole under South African law after serving half his sentence. Pistorius will most likely be taken from where he is incarcerated at the Atteridgeville Correctional Center in the capital, Pretoria, to the Steenkamps’ home city of Gqerberha for the victim-offender meeting since Barry Steenkamp is unable to travel due to his health.
