Mass-murdering Germanwings pilot was 'STILL under psychiatric care': Claims that depressed Lubitz had been dumped by his girlfriend before he deliberately crashed plane into mountain
The killer Alps co-pilot had received long-term psychiatric counselling and may have recently split up with his girlfriend or been in the middle of a 'relationship crisis', it was reported in Germany this morning. Lubitz (pictured centre) slipped through the 'safety net' and should never have been flying, bosses of the budget airline admitted yesterday. As police removed computer equipment and papers from Andreas Lubitz's flat and family home last night (left), it emerged the 28-year-old fitness fanatic had suffered from depression and 'burnout' which had held up his career. But, incredibly, he later passed all his psychological assessments and was considered fit to fly. Investigators are still at the scene of the crash in the French Alps (right), from where they are recovering the bodies of the 150 people killed.
