A South African court ruled Tuesday that convicted killer Oscar Pistorius can be released from house arrest on $688 conditional bail, NBC News reported.
Under the terms of his bail, Pistorius will have permission to leave the house where he's residing between 7 a.m. and noon every day. He will only be allowed to travel within 20 kilometers (12 miles) of the home and will need written permission to leave, Judge Aubrey Ledwaba said.
The double-amputee Olympic sprinter was found guilty of murder after killing law graduate and model Reeva Steenkamp on Valentine's Day 2013. A previous culpable homicide conviction was overturned by an appeals court last week.
Pistorious faces at least 15 years in prison.
