The Department of Correctional Services has confirmed that Oscar Pistorius has been released from prison already and is currently at home.
The former Paralympian was granted parole in November, after serving half of his 13-year sentence.
It's for the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp who was shot at his Pretoria home in 2013.
