Prosecutor seeks psychiatric examination for teen suspected of helping in Fagersta school attack

This is reported by Sveriges Radio Ekot, citing documents submitted to Västmanland District Court (a district court).

A so-called Section 7 investigation is conducted to determine whether a suspect may have suffered from, or is suffering from, a serious mental disorder.

The Swedish National Board of Forensic Medicine (the national forensic medicine authority) has previously stated that the main suspect may have suffered from a serious mental disorder both at the time of the crime and during the investigation.
