Pistorius – who is serving a six-year prison sentence for murdering girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp – was rushed to hospital last Saturday with slashed wrists.
Officers who searched his cell reportedly found blades, but Pistorius and his family denied he was trying to commit suicide, instead insisting he had fallen out of bed.
However, South Africa’s Eyewitness News is now reporting that he is under suicide watch at the Kgosi Mampuru Prison.
It also says he has filed a complaint against three nurses at the prison, saying they attempted to kill him.
He reportedly claims they gave him medication which was ‘toxic’ and has had a request move to a different prison denied.
His legal team have attacked the prosecution’s decision to appeal his prison sentence for murder.
They claim Oscar’s case has become ‘too personal’ for prosecutor Gerrie Nel.
A defence source said: ‘Any decent human being will say the man has suffered enough, let this verdict lie.’
