A sober Oscar Pistorius was released on parole from a South African prison, after an eight -year stint for killing his girlfriend, supermodel Reeva Steenkamp.
Sources confirmed that the paralympian ‘Blade runner’ was released friday morning after serving more than half of a 13-year jail time for the crime.
However, he will live under strict conditions – including being unable to speak to the media –  until his sentence expires in 2029.
Pistorius was convicted of murder in 2015 after an appeal court overturned an earlier verdict of culpable homicide.
Under South African law, all offenders are entitled to be considered for parole once they have served half their total sentence, which for Pistorius was finally set in 2017 at 13 years and five months.
The double amputee reportedly shot Reeva multiple times in 2013 through a door and subsequently claimed that he had mistaken her for a burglar.
Agency reports quoted   Reeva’s mother as saying that she accepted the decision to release the former athlete – but added her family was the one “serving a life sentence “”Has there been justice for Reeva? Has Oscar served enough time? There can never be justice if your loved one is never coming back, and no amount of time served will bring Reeva back. We, who remain behind, are the ones serving a life sentence.
“My only desire is that I will be allowed to live my last years in peace with my focus remaining on the Reeva Rebecca Steenkamp Foundation, to continue Reeva’s legacy,” she asserted.
