either way.
If he's stamped as mentally ill he will be sentenced to forced treatment.
One doctor alone can't say he's recovered and let him go. There are quite a number of people who needs to agree.
It is also a lesser known solution in norwegian law.
If his mental condition is treated and he gets well, they can still decide he is a danger to the community and transfer him to jail.
But if you ask me, as a norwegian: The police should have given him a bullet in the head at the scene. end of story and he wouldn't have become an icon for stupid brown racists with equal mental conditions.
