Psychiatrists file Breivik mental health report
The forensic psychiatrists who evaluated the mental state of confessed mass killer Anders Behring Breivik have handed over their assessment to a Norwegian court.
One of the psychiatrists, Torger Husby, told the Associated Press today that the report draws a “clear conclusion” about Breivik’s mental health, but declined to give details.
The report will help determine whether the 32-year-old right-wing extremist can be held criminally liable for a bomb and shooting massacre in which 77 people were killed on July 22.
The key findings are to be presented at a news conference later today.
Breivik has confessed to carrying out the attacks but denies criminal guilt, saying he is a commander of a Norwegian resistance movement opposed to multiculturalism.
