South African Paralympics champion Oscar Pistorius, jailed for murdering his girlfriend and model Reeva Steenkamp, was officially released from prison on parole on Friday. Widely renowned as "Blade Runner" for his carbon-fiber prosthetic legs, the 37-year-old has completed almost nine years of his 13-year and five-month murder sentence. In November last year, a parole board granted Pistorius bail after he completed more than half of his sentence.
