Norway court orders new psychiatric tests on Breivik

January 13, 2012 18:25

A court in Norway has ordered a new psychiatric evaluation of mass killer Anders Behring Breivik after an earlier report found him legally insane. Judge Wenche Elizabeth Arntzen said in Oslo that the new evaluation was necessary because of widespread criticism of the initial findings.

On the basis of the earlier report, Breivik would be placed in psychiatric care instead of prison. His twin attacks on 22 July left 77 people dead and 151 injured.
