The mother of Oscar Pistorius' slain girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp said a meeting with the double-amputee sprinter is inevitable, but suggests it will be much more contentious than amicable.

June Steenkamp told the British newspaper, The Guardian, that she and her husband Barry are preparing themselves to have a face-to-face meeting one day with Pistorius, in which Reeva's 68-year-old mother said she intended to ask him why he shot and killed their daughter.

Prosecution in Oscar Pistorius trial to face further embarrassment by appealing his verdict and sentencing?

Don't expect the encounter to provide healing, June Steenkamp said. In fact, the meeting is almost certain to provoke buried hostility.

"What can he say? Sorry is not enough," she told the Guardian. "What can he say and what would we want to talk to him about? I don't know.

"But one day that confrontation will come. Altercation? Maybe. Violence? No, I don't think so. But that day has to come."

Reeva Steenkamp was going to leave Oscar Pistorius on the night she was killed?

The fact that she can't even guarantee a meeting without violence still speaks to the rage she and her husband feel - even though June said that "You have to move forward with forgiveness; otherwise you carry all the hate inside your heart.

"So I have forgiven. It's got nothing to do with how I feel about the case, it's just something I'm compelled to do."

Pistorius currently is serving a five-year sentence for a culpable homicide charge that Judge Thokozile Masipa handed down for the Valentine's Day 2013 shooting of the 29-year-old Steenkamp.

Under the current conditions of his release, The Guardian reports, Pistorius is eligible for release in 10 months and serving the rest of his time under house arrest.

Pistorius and Steenkamp had been dating for three months at the time the shooting took place. June and Barry Steenkamp never met Pistorius during that time, but June claims that Reeva never slept with Pistorius and planning to leave him.

The Steenkamps never have met Pistorius face to face.
