    • Here's What Happens If Oscar Pistorius Gets Parole

    You’ve all been asking it.

    Spokesman for Correctional Services Department, Koos Gerber answered the question of whether or not the double amputee would be allowed to take his prosthesis to jail with him, in the event that bail be denied. Click for the answer.

    Yes.

    The Correctional Services Department said that inmates with disabilities are “treated with dignity and enjoy the same rights as able-bodied inmates.”

    No prisoner’s human rights are taken away from them. They are treated with the dignity they deserve. The department [of correctional services] is a responsible organisation and takes care of inmates in an appropriate manner.

    Gerber explained further:

    We only assist in providing for the special needs that a specific disability requires. A blind person will, for instance, be incarcerated with people with sight so that they can assist him and so on… they certainly are not locked up separately as a group.

    Pistorius’ bail hearing is likely to conclude tomorrow.
