A weapons expert who carried out various tests after Oscar Pistorius shot dead his girlfriend is facing further scrutiny in court, as the athlete's legal team prepares to wrap up its defence.
Thomas Wolmarans is back on the stand in Pretoria, South Africa, where the Paralympian's murder trial has entered its 30th day.
Defence lawyer Barry Roux has only a limited number of witnesses left to call and is expected to close his case this week.
Judge Thokozile Masipa will retire to consider her verdict once prosecutor Gerrie Nel has completed his arguments.
Thomas Wolmarans faced tough questioning from Gerrie Nel on Friday On Friday, Mr Wolmarans recreated the moment Ms Steenkamp was shot dead by playing the part of the former model in a reconstruction.
He entered a mocked-up version of Pistorius' bathroom and mimicked the movements he believes the athlete's partner made when the bullets struck her body on Valentine's Day last year.
Earlier in the day, Judge Masipa and lawyers huddled around the door as a court official used a spray to reveal a laser beam set up by prosecutors to show the trajectory taken by one of the bullets.
Pistorius, 27, denies a charge of premeditated murder, claiming he mistook Ms Steenkamp for an intruder.
The trial continues.
