Oscar Pistorius has spent his first night in prison after being sentenced to five years for the manslaughter of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. It is understood the athlete will spend part of his term under house arrest.
He was also handed a suspended three-year sentence for firearms offences.
Oscar Pistorius will be ineligible to compete in any Paralympic events for the duration of his five year prison sentence, the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) said.
Although Pistorius could be released after 10 months to serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest, the IPC says its rules will still prevent him from running for the full five years.
This rules him out of the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Paralympics.
The mother of Reeva Steenkamp, the model shot dead by Oscar Pistorius, has written about how she felt during the trial.
