Oscar Pistorius was back in court today, Tuesday where a judge granted him bail.
Judge Aubrey Ledwaba said Pistorius has proven he is not a flight risk.
The
double-amputee sprinter will be free to leave his uncle's home, where
he has been under house confinement, and can travel up to 20 kilometers
(12 miles) between the hours of 7 a.m. and noon.
He
will be required to seek written permission to leave the house at any
other time, and must pay a 10,000-rand ($686) bail, Ledwaba said.
Pistorius will still have to wear an electronic monitoring device.
Last
week, South Africa's Supreme Court of Appeal overturned his conviction
of culpable homicide and found him guilty of murdering his girlfriend,
Reeva Steenkamp.
