Oscar Pistorius has been pictured looking 'relaxed' while kayaking with friends – just days before he is due back in court charged with murdering his girlfriend.
The sprinter – known as the 'Blade Runner' – was spotted paddling with three male friends off the coast of Hermanus, South Africa, on Sunday.
It comes as South African police announced they have finished their investigation into the case.
Pistorius, 26, who is accused of gunning down model Reeva Steenkamp, is due to attend a hearing in Pretoria on Monday, the day Reeva Steenkamp would have turned 30, where he is li kely to be formally charged with her murder and a trial date could be set.
The 26-year-old double amputee and six-time Paralympic sprint champion has been charged with the premeditated murder of Ms Steenkamp on Valentine's night, but claims he shot the 29-year-old after mistaking her for an intruder.
The Olympian was spotted kayaking by Bronwin du Plessis, 25, who was walking with his wife around the Old Harbour.
He said: 'He was standing next to a kayak with three of his friends and I saw the prosthetic legs. I looked up and I thought 'oh, it's Pistorius'.
'I had my camera with me so I quickly took a few photographs. It was totally by chance.
'Then they started carrying out the kayak and he was up in front with a friend at the back and then there was another two friends in another kayak.
'He looked relaxed, he wasn't looking over his shoulder – he was just like a normal person.
