The right-wing extremist who confessed to killing 77 people in a bomb and shooting rampage in Norway has accused the psychiatrists who diagnosed him as psychotic of lying.

In a letter to Norwegian tabloid VG, Anders Breivik says the two psychiatrists who evaluated him in prison fabricated 80% of the content of their 13 meetings.

Torgeir Husby and Synne Soerheim concluded Breivik suffers from paranoid schizophrenia, a diagnosis that was questioned by outside experts and commentators in Norway. An Oslo court ordered another evaluation, whose conclusions are expected before the trial starts April 16.
