Massacre

Oslo Dept: Mr. Breivik, who has admitted to the July 22 massacre and a bombing in Oslo that killed eight people earlier that day, briefly interrupted the proceedings with a request to pose questions to the witnesses. When the trial opened four weeks ago, the self-styled anti-Muslim crusader pleaded innocent to terror charges even though he admitted to the facts of the case saying he didn t recognize the authority of the court, according to Globe and Mail. The 33-year-old defendant has showed little sign of emotion during the trial, even when describing how he shot his victims multiple times in the head to make sure he killed them. More than half of them were teenagers. I smelled gunpowder, it stung my eyes, Ms. Brenna, 24, told the Oslo court. On Wednesday, he said he would consider dropping his defence in exchange for a chance to question those giving testimony. When the judge rejected his request, he complained that the decision was ideologically based. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
