This week Oscar Pistorius will be back in court to face sentencing for murder. He was previously found guilty for the murder of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp.
He faces a jail term of at least 15 years, but his sentence can be reduced due to time already spent in prison and mitigating factors.
A sentence is expected by Friday. He will have no right to appeal.
Pistorius, 29, killed Ms Steenkamp in February 2013 after firing four times through a locked toilet door.
The athlete has always maintained he believed he was shooting at an intruder.
He was initially sentenced to five years for manslaughter, but the conviction was upgraded to murder in December following an appeal by the prosecution.
