The double armless Olympian Oscar Pistorius, who killed his model girlfriend inside their house in 2013, is a prisoner of war with his former friends since he was released from prison in January.
Pistorius reached up to at least two people of the International , Paralympic , Committee after his release, asking if they could work together in any capacity. He was immediately rebuffed.
” He’s too dangerous to work with today”, one of the people tells The Post. ” There’s nothing for him here”.
The 37-year-old sportsman became the first triple amputee to compete in the Olympics in 2012, earning him a national hero status.
Six months later, Pistorious resurrected his life when he repeatedly shot Reeva Steenkamp through a home’s restroom door.
During his 2014 murder trial, he claimed that he mistook his partner for a criminal.
He used ammunition to shoot her with the intention of causing the most physical harm.
A higher court first handed him five years in prison in 2014 for criminal homicide.
After lawyers appealed, government more than doubled his word to 13 years and five weeks.
Before being released in January, he served more than half of that word.
Since his discharge, Pistorius has been hidden away in the fortified element belonging to his brother, Arnold, in Pretoria.
The substance, in the exclusive Waterkloof suburb, has armed guards, electric defenses and apparently many “attack dogs”.
Under the terms of his discharge, Pistorius is not required to wear an digital monitor.
A probation officer investigations on him at random times of the day or night, according to the Department of Corrections.
He is content to alcohol , and medicine tests.
He can have no call with Reeva Steenkamp’s home.
Additionally, Pistorious is unable to interview or post on social media.
He never write a narrative about his experience.
Pistorious ‘ release from prison was opposed by Steenkamp’s home. After his release, Reeva’s family June Steenkamp told the , ITV , night show that she accepted the pardon club’s choice.
‘ He had to come out, it’s unavoidable,” she told the show”. He’s on probation today. It wo n’t have any impact on my life.
” He’s done what he’s done already and I ca n’t do anything about that,” she continued”. I’ve lost the most beautiful, beautiful child. And then I’ve been without her for so many times, I miss her every time.”
According to his parole documents, Pistorius has listed his charity operate at NG Kerk Waterkloof, the Dutch Reformed Church attended by his brother.
He performs sweeping and light maintenance tasks.
He slowly attends service.
” I almost did n’t recognize him,” says Aida Govender, who spotted him at the church last month while visiting with her relatives”. His locks is long and he’s got a hair. He’s even not as muscular as I expected. You would not understand he was an performer, he’s just not the similar.”
The Post is informed by a church representative that Pistorius appears differently now.
” He’s no polite, never talkative,” the parishoner says”. I do n’t know if I’ve even seem him crack a smile. He’s only a darkness of what he once was.”
