Oscar Pistorius, the former Paralympian who murdered his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, has been denied parole in South Africa.
The 36-year-old had been seeking early release 10 years after the Valentine's Day shooting.
But the prison authorities said he had not served enough time and they would consider the matter again next year.
Ms Steenkamp's parents welcomed the decision, but said it was not a cause for celebration.
