The Correctional Supervision and Parole Board will be convening a hearing at St Albans prison outside Port Elizabeth on Friday to hear a review application challenging the granting of parole for the jailed tennis star, Bob Hewitt.
The hearing will be chaired by Judge Siraj Desai who is the chairperson of the Board.
Hewitt was due to be released on parole in September, but the decision was put on hold after the Justice Minister Ronald Lamola called for a review when it emerged that Hewitt's three victims were not consulted and that proper legal procedures were not followed.
The three women will now be able to make their submissions to the Review Board.
"We are saying that the law was not complied with and because of that the Parole Review Board cannot confirm the original decision made by the parole board," said lawyer Tania Koen, who is representing two of Hewitt's three victims.
"We are anticipating an outcome where the Review Board will instruct that a new parole hearing will take place and at the new hearing we will then make representations on behalf of our clients on the merits," she said.
Hewitt has already served three years of a six-year sentence following his conviction for rape and sexual assault which occurred in the 1980s and 1990s.
