If memory serves, Norway brought back the death penalty especially for him.

That's a pretty heavy level of "Fuck you", but given that he was a Nazi collaborator of the highest order, it's probably one of the few situations I'd say, "Just this once, as a treat"

Alternatively, it was a missed golden opportunity for Norway to prove that it considers capital punishment wrong on principle, not contingently wrong. Israel missed the same opportunity.
