Video: Oscar Pistorius 'allowed to train' on bail "If he wishes to continue with his training, we will facilitate it," said James Smalberger, chief deputy commissioner of the Department of Correctional Services. Officers from the department discussed bail terms with the athlete and agreed that he can resume training, provided he lets the authorities know his where he is going. "Mr Pistorius is not under house arrest, nor is he restricted to his home," Mr Smalberger added. The only thing that needs to happen as part of the bail conditions is that he needs to inform Correctional Services of his movements. He stressed that Pistorius was being treated exactly the same as anyone else on bail, despite his status as a national icon and sporting superstar.
