Oscar, also known as the “Blade Runner” for his carbon-fibre prosthetics, claimed he thought a robber was hiding there when he fired the gun.
“We were … advised at this point in time that it has been denied and it will be considered again in one year’s time,” Tania Koen, a lawyer for the victim’s family, told AFP.
Steenkamp‘s family opposed his bid for release.
“While we welcome today’s decision, today is not a cause for celebration. We miss Reeva terribly and will do so for the rest of our lives. We believe in justice and hope that it continues to prevail,” they said.
Oscar will be able to reapply for parole in another year.
