Experts believe Manshaus was psychotic at the time of the crime – news Norway – Overview of news from different parts of the country

In April last year, it became known that Philip Manshaus’ lawyer, Unni Fries, requested the reopening of the criminal case against him. Fris petitioned for the case to be reopened because new evidence had come to light which she believed the court should consider. Experts were therefore appointed to assess both Mannshaus’s current condition and at the time of the crime. The new experts believe terror convict Philip Manshaus was mentally ill when he killed his sister and committed a terrorist attack against a mosque in Bærum in 2019, write VG and Nettavisen. – I believe that the conditions for resumption are present, so it is up to the court to assess this question, says Fires to news. Manshaus is sentenced to detention – Greater Oslo On the commission’s table – The newly appointed experts have submitted a report where the parties have been given the opportunity to submit any comments or comments. And that is really where the case stands, says state attorney Johan Øverberg to NTB. He will not comment on VG and Nettavisen’s information. – The case is now with the commission for decision, says the state attorney to NTB. Sentenced to detention Manshaus was sentenced to 21 years’ detention for murder and terror in 2019. He was judged to be sane. If the case is reopened, and Manshaus is judged insane, he will be transferred to compulsory mental health care. That is what NTB writes.
