The two women he raped and the woman he sexually assaulted during coaching sessions, intend opposing his release.
Fallen tennis star Bob Hewitt’s parole review date has been set for 24 March, but the two women he raped, and the woman he sexually assaulted during coaching sessions, intend opposing his release.
It will be the 80-year-old’s third attempt after one failed court application to convert his sentence to house arrest, and an order by Justice and Correctional Services Minister Ronald Lamola to review Hewitt being granted parole last year. Hewitt coached Olivia Jasriel, Theresa “Twiggy” Tolken and “W”, whose name may not be released, when they were young girls in the 1980s and 1990s.Born in Australia, Hewitt is a former Grand Slam tennis champion.
The Department of Justice and Correctional Service allows complainants or victims of a crime to say in writing what they think about a person being placed on parole. They can also attend the meeting when it is discussed, if they want to.Hewitt was due to be released last September but, when the women’s lawyers found out it was being done without their input, Lamola ordered the review and the former tennis champion had to stay behind bars.
Jasriel said she has already made travel plans to be present at the hearing, which she said has reopened old wounds.For more news your way, download The Citizen’s app for
