Judge On Pistorius’ Case In Danger

Thokozile Masipa has faced criticism since ruling the athlete did not kill his girlfriend intentionally.

Some of the remarks made against her border on hate speech, defamation and contempt of court, three legal groups said.

Protection for Ms Masipa has been stepped up since the verdict.

Police officers from the Tactical Response Team have been stationed outside her home and have also been escorting her.
