Neiwand sentenced to prison

Olympic dual Silver medallist and Kilo World Champion Gary Neiwand has been sentenced to four months imprisonment for breaching an order requiring him to keep away from his ex-wife. The Melbourne Magistrates' Court ruled that the suspended sentence given to Neiwand in September last year would now become effective as the former track rider had breached it by driving past his wife's house. Neiwand's lawyer is reported to appeal the sentence and apply for bail.
