If Oscar Pistorius is not receiving preferential treatment at Kgosi Mampuru II prison, then some other inmates may be - but not in a good way.

Africa's CAJ News is reporting that Department of Correctional Services officers are being accused of assaulting inmates at the prison in Pretoria, South Africa, and confiscated their cell phones and sim-cards after the inmates allegedly took video of Pistorius and fugitive Radovan Krejcir playing soccer in a courtyard within the prison walls.

Sources told CAJ News that the officers' raid took up three nights last week. According to the report, cellphone smuggling has become rampant at the prison, and when the video was leaked, it reportedly angered prison guards.

The guards were alleged to have conducted a raid while the prisoners slept, and that's when an inmate said he was assaulted.

"They took all our cellphone possessions while shouting that we were fools! They shouted at us for distributing the video footage to the media about Pistorius and Krejcir, who were playing football game," one inmate told CAJ News.

The latest news caps a trying two weeks for Pistorius in the media that started when a report came out saying that he had lost considerable weight because he thought his prison food might be poisoned and he was purchasing just small tins of food from the prison convenience store.

The video of Pistorius and Krejcir was released, and prison officials had to explain that they were not giving preferential treatment to famous prisoners.

Now, the video leakers reportedly are being punished for portraying Pistorius as a far different figure than the one that came out saying that he was withering away in jail.

The double-amputee Olympic sprinter also learned that his appeal is moving forward, despite objections from his defense team and that he could be remanded to house arrest before the appeal of his culpable homicide conviction in the shooting death of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp is heard.
