"The maximum indeterminate penalty, called "containment" (Norwegian: forvaring), is also set at 21 years imprisonment, and the prisoner is required to serve at least 10 years before becoming eligible for parole. "Containment" is used when the prisoner is deemed a danger to society and there is a great chance of committing violent crimes in the future. If the prisoner is still considered dangerous after serving the original sentence, the prisoner can receive up to five years additional containment."
Should I interpret this as that he can get an additional five years of containment indefinitely? I'm interpreting this as 21 (original sentence) + 5 (additional containtment) = 26
But I guess I should probably not make too many statements about a law system I don't really know. My previous statement about the 14 years was also wrong; apparently it's 10 years ;\
