Norway Killer Breivik presents ‘unworkable’ demands

The man who has acknowledged murdering 77 people in Norway has arranged a list of demands that are "impracticable, faraway, far from the actual world", his lawyer says.

Anders Behring Breivik desired the government to leave and Japanese experts to evaluate his mental health, Geir Lippestad told reporters. He added, a second list from his client asked for items like cigarettes.

Mr. Breivik has admitted to killing eight people with a bomb in Oslo and gun firing dead 69 on Utoeya island.

He accuses the ruling Labour Party for enhanced immigration in Norway.

Labour's youth wing was on Utoeya for a summer camp when the assault happened, as the bomb in the capital was set-out near authorities buildings.

Mr. Lippestad said Mr. Breivik's list of demands was "totally unfeasible to implement" and illustrated "he doesn't know how society functions.

"His demands here comprise the full defeat of both the Norwegian and European societies," he told the Associated Press. "But it considers that he doesn't realize the situation he's in."

The 32-year-old had connected his demands to his eagerness to share information about other suspected extremist cells, Mr. Lippestad said.

Norwegian police have earlier cast uncertainty on Mr. Breivik's statements that he was part of a broader network but said they would inspect them.

A court has hired two psychiatrists to finding out to Mr. Breivik's actions, with a mandate to report back by 1 November.

Mr. Lippestad said Mr Breivik had inquired that he also be evaluated by Japanese mental health experts as he thinks "the Japanese consider the idea and values of respect" and would understand him adequately than Europeans.

The lawyer has prior said his client is likely insane.

Mr. Breivik has been alleged under the criminal law for acts of terrorism. The allegations include the undermining of imperative aims of society, including government, and causing grave threat in the population.

At a court appearance on 25 July, Mr. Breivik accepted implementing the assaults but did not plead guilty to the allegations. He was remanded in under arrest for eight weeks, with the first four to be in solitary imprisonment.

The assaults on 22 July devastated Norway, one of the most politically steady and liberal countries in Europe.

The government plans to maintain a free "July 22 Commission" to evaluate the assaults, including inquiring whether police reacted too slowly to the shootings at Utoeya.
