Roux said Pistorius did make calls, including to the guards of the housing estate. In one case, he said, a guard could hear Pistorius crying.
"Was it part of his premeditated plan, not to switch off the phone and cry?" Roux asked sarcastically.
Botha said Pistorius did not have a license for a .38-caliber weapon and consequently his possession of ammunition for such a weapon was illegal.
The detective said that all Pistorius would say after the shooting was "he thought it was a burglar."
In an additional revelation Wednesday, police said they found two boxes of testosterone and needles in the Pistorius' bedroom.
But Roux said the substance was an "herbal remedy," and not a steroid or a banned substance.
Police "take every piece of evidence and try to extract the most possibly negative connotation and present it to the court," defense lawyer Roux said.

Why would you shoot someone through a closed door? Sorry, but his story is fishy for that one reason alone. But, secondly, if you are in bed with someone, and you think you hear an intruder, the first thing you say is "I think I hear an intruder, More..
This is a tricky, awful case. Shooting through a closed door seems like poor judgement at best, but hardly premeditated murder without significant new evidence. I'm a fairly small guy and probably couldn't put up much of a fight in an More..
Seems a little odd that he has a 9mm handgun but he has .38 caliber ammo?
