A broken man: Best friend of Oscar Pistorius reveals athlete is suicidal
Oscar Pistorius is a broken man who thinks of ending his life, a close friend has revealed.
The Olympics hero is a shadow of the star who thrilled the world as the amazing Blade Runner with prosthetic legs, the Sunday People reports.
He has been selling his belongings to fund his soaring legal fees since he was charged with murdering his girlfriend, a sensational documentary will reveal.
One of the athletes dearest friends Mike Azzi, who Pistorius fondly calls uncle Mike, said: There is no confidence in his tone of voice.
Hes just like someone walking around in circles.
He doesnt know where he is going. I would say that, just by speaking to him, he is a broken man.
Id go as far as to say he would be on the verge of suicide.
It really worries me. I get the feeling that hes really hurting and hes an inkling of the man that he used to be.
The conversation appears in a BBC documentary Oscar Pistorius: What really happened?
Among the revelations is how Pistorius, 26, showed bravado after he was arrested over the Valentines Day shooting and told police: Ill survive. I always win.
It was his response to a senior officer who had warned him: You could go to jail for a very long time, Oscar.
Since then he has sold shares in one of his race horses, Tiger Canyon, and plans to sell more of his property.
