Breivik’s lawyer asks the court to ignore the PST report – news Buskerud – Local news, TV and radio

For three and a half days, Anders Behring Breivik and his lawyers have tried to persuade the court that he has suicidal thoughts and is a victim of his sentence because of the regime he lives under in Ringerike prison. It is particularly about the fact that he feels it is impossible to build “meaningful relationships” with other people, since he lives under strict control of letters and visits. Earlier on Thursday, a psychiatrist and a psychological specialist said that they do not believe the explanation about depression. They don’t consider him suicidal. Dislikes the PST report This afternoon, Breivik’s lawyer Øystein Storrvik began his closing proceedings. A recent PST report paints a picture that the symbol Anders Behring Breivik still stands strong in far-right circles internationally, and that a sign of life from the terrorist can inspire others. Storrvik fears that the report will make it difficult for Breivik to get anything done with the letter and visit routines in the prison. – The PST report almost cements the whole situation. I think the court cannot use it as a basis. He cannot do anything about the symbolic power the report outlines. If it is leading to Breivik’s future, then this will last into eternity, Storrvik said in his closing remarks. – Screwed too hard The mass murderer wants to write letters with people outside the walls, both people he has met in prison – as well as meaningful – It will be too strict. It will be too tight. And the consequences are missing relationships. There must be higher requirements for compensatory measures after such a long time. Several times during the week, Storrvik has returned to a letter Breivik wanted to send to a former fellow prisoner, who was transferred to another prison. The lawyer believes it was a letter between two people who had a relationship, and that it was devoid of ideology and politics. The letter was stopped. – The screw has been turned too hard, and the court must assess whether this is a violation of human rights.
