Anders Behring Breivik claims he has suffered 'serious brain damage' as a result of his prison conditions - and that the proof of this is his love for a seedy reality TV show.
The mass murderer is suing Norway over his prison conditions, claiming the state had been 'trying to kill me' by keeping him in isolation following the 2011 massacre in which he killed 77 people.
He claims he is a 'victim of cruel and inhuman treatment' in Skien prison, 87 miles south-west of Oslo, where he has an entire cellblock to himself and access to a computer and a PlayStation

Quote:
'After two years, I've started loving Paradise Hotel, something which is a sign that I have developed serious brain damage,' the 37-year-old Nazi terrorist told a court on Wednesday.
'Sometimes I've been fed the same microwave meal two days in a row. It might sound comical [to you, but it's worse than waterboarding.'

Norwegian mass killer Breivik, pictured on Thursday, is charging Norwegian authorities of violating his human rights by holding him in isolation for almost five years
Quote:
Paradise Hotel is best described as the bastard child of Love Island, Geordie Shore and Big Brother.
Around a dozen contestants, split equally between male and female, are sent to live in a luxury hotel - with a particularly well-stocked open bar.
Each week the single contestants are paired off with a new person and have to share their double-bed hotel room for the next seven days - with predictable results. The winners are the last couple standing, who get to split a cash prize.
While the show originated in the U.S., Paradise Hotel has seen a revival in Scandinavia in recent years, and is one of the most popular shows among young people in Sweden and Norway.

Murderer: Anders Behring Breivik, who killed 77 people in 2011, is suing Norway, claiming his solitary confinement in Skien prison, south of Oslo, is 'cruel and inhuman treatment'
Quote:
Breivik claimed to have been 'treated worse than an animal', complaining about cold coffee, having to use plastic cutlery.
He also compared himself to anti-apartheid leader Nelson Mandela, saying the only difference between them was that Mandela 'ordered action,' while he had been the one to 'carry out the action,' CNN reports.
Addressing the court, he vowed to fight 'to the death' for Nazism, confirming fears he would use the platform to grandstand his extremist views.
'I have fought for National Socialism for 25 years, and I will fight for it to the death,' he said of the Nazi party's political doctrine.
Taking the stand for his first public statement since his sentencing in August 2012, Breivik said he was the secretary of an extremist party he is trying to create, the Nordic State Political Party.
Norwegian authorities have refused to broadcast his testimony on television to try to prevent him sending coded messages to supporters and out of respect for survivors of his murderous spree in 2011 and the families of the victims.

The Norwegian Attorney General has denied Breivik's claims, saying there is no evidence of the murderer suffering from the conditions under which he is being held at Skien
Quote:
Breivik murdered 77 people and injured more than 300 - many of them teenagers - in July 2011, by detonating a bomb in downtown Oslo and carrying out a mass shooting on Utoya Island.
The Norwegian Correctional Service denies Breivik is held in solitary confinement, preferring the phrase 'excluded from the company of other prisoners' - as he disposes of an entire block.
At Skien prison, Breivik lives in three different cells - for living, study and exercise - between which he can move freely.
He also access to a computer, which is not connected to the internet, as well as his own television and a PlayStation.
The right-wing anti-muslim extremist is also free to take walks in a yard at his leisure and he can cook his own food and do his laundry should he so wish.
'There is no evidence that the plaintiff has physical or mental problems as a result of prison conditions,' the Office of the Attorney General, the Norwegian state's legal office in civil lawsuits, wrote in a document sent to the Oslo District Court and released on Wednesday.
Breivik was sentenced to 21 years' imprisonment with preventive detention in 2012, and has been kept in isolation since his arrest.

normally i think the conditions in prisons should be raised a bit. being imprisoned is hard enough but he has mental problems not because he loves these shows but because he thinks this is a reason to sue someone.
rot bitch

I'm for raising prison standards (although the prison he's staying in seems to the right standard) since it should be a rehabilitating, not a punishment.
Saying that, this guy is way past rehabilitation and needs to rot.

He can watch tv, has a playstation, can cook his own meals and do his own laundry, has three personal cells (practically a bedroom, office, and gym), and can take walks outdoors, and he thinks he's experiencing inhumane conditions?
He should try American prison.

Here in Norway, we only have 20-23 years sentence for people who commited inhumane acts so idk.
Life sentences was abolised somewhere after WW2 so yeah :micheal:
Or maybe your saying that he will be in the asylum for life?

Im sure any prison in Norway is better than we expect.
And 21 years is nothing for what he did.
