Neiwand jailed for stalking wife

Olympic cyclist Gary Neiwand will spend four months in jail after
breaching an intervention order requiring him to keep away from his ex-wife.

In September last year, Neiwand, 39, was given a suspended four-month
jail term, but just weeks later breached a court order by driving past
his wife's house.

In the Melbourne Magistrates' Court today, Magistrate Felicity Broughton
ordered the dual Olympic silver medallist to serve out the four-month
sentence.

Neiwand's lawyer said he would appeal against the decision and apply for
bail.
