Oscar Pistorius maybe secretly freed despite serving murder sentence to attend grandfather's funeral
The 31-year-old former Olympian is currently serving a 15-year jail sentence for the murder of his 29-year-old model girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp in 2013
Convicted murderer Oscar Pistorius is likely to be released from prison on "compassionate grounds" later this week in order to attend a memorial service for his grandfather. The 31-year-old South African former Olympian is currently serving a 15-year jail sentence for the murder of his 29-year-old model girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, whom he shot dead in the bathroom of their Pretoria home.
Hendrik Pistorius, Oscar's grandfather who was the former athlete called Oupa, died last month at the age of 101.
