		</div><p>Oscar Pistorius has been moved at his request to a prison that is better able to accommodate disabled offenders, the South African government has said.</p>
<p>The Department of Correctional Services said that the former Paralympic champion was transferred from Kgosi Mampuru II prison in Pretoria to the nearby Atteridgeville Correctional Centre, which recently installed bath tubs during upgrades for disabled criminals.</p>
<p>It says the Atteridgeville prison houses offenders serving up to six years in prison, and has rehabilitation and development programmes for inmates.</p>
<p>Officials say double-amputee Pistorius&#8217;s disability previously required that he be held in a Kgosi Mampuru remand centre lacking such programs.</p>
<p>Pistorius is serving a six-year prison term for murdering girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp in 2013.</p>
<p>Prosecutors have appealed against the sentence, which they say is too lenient.</p>
