FILE- In this Wednesday, Feb. 20, 2013 file photo, Investigating officer Hilton Botha, sits inside the
court witness box during the Oscar Pistorius bail hearing at the magistrate court in Pretoria, South
Africa. The lead investigator in the murder case against Oscar Pistorius faces attempted murder
charges himself over a 2011 shooting, police said Thursday, Feb. 21, 2013, in another potentially
damaging blow to the prosecution. Prosecutors said they were unaware of the charges against
veteran detective Hilton Botha when they put him on the stand in court to explain why Pistorius
should not be given bail in the Valentine's Day shooting death of his girlfriend. Police Brig. Neville
Malila told The Associated Press that Botha who gave testimony in the Pistorius bail hearing on
Wednesday is scheduled to appear in court in May on seven counts of attempted murder related to
an incident in October 2011 when Botha and two other police officers fired at a minibus they were
trying to stop. (AP Photo/Themba Hadebe, File)
