Because it's not beyond doubt that he murdered somebody. Hence the trial.
Bail is set because he doesn't meet any of the criteria which would be needed to deny bail. E.g. Flight risk, witness intimidation, or likelihood to do harm to himself or others while on bail.
The exceptional circumstance is that South African jails are extremely overcrowded, and because the magistrate thought he didn't meet any of the other reasons to be held, he released him.
There is no doubt that a murder was committed by him, it's merely the supposed mitigating circumstances that are a matter of debate.
As for your last sentence, just LOL, I'm sure 'prison overcrowding' would have been a factor if it'd have been Adeyemi Bapoto stood in the dock..................
Actually there is doubt, as nothing has been proven. Again, hence the trial. Pistorius denies murder.
How you, a person who has done nothing but read newspaper reports can say there is 'no doubt' a murder has been committed is beyond me.
And yeah, i'm sure the magistrate just made up prison overcrowding to let Pistorius off, shortly after underlining that he thought the prosecution case wasn't weakened by Botha's fumbles.
You're basically accusing the magistrate and SA justice system of racism and pandering to a rich man because it fits your narrative. Cringeworthy.
Some of you could do with watching Twelve Angry Men, christ.

Great film, but I don't think anybody saw this murder through the window of a passing train.
