"Norway mass killer applies to college" by Karl Ritter | Associated Press, August 02, 2013
STOCKHOLM — Convicted mass killer Anders Behring Breivik has applied for admission to the University of Oslo, testing the limits of Norway’s commitment to rehabilitate criminals rather than punish them.
The right-wing extremist, who killed 77 people in bomb and gun attacks two years ago, wants to study political science, and prison and university officials say he could do his studies in his cell if accepted by the school.
‘‘In Norway, and I’m proud of this, we have a system where inmates, in general, can apply to study at universities, most of them from their own cell, so it will be distance learning,’’ said Ole Petter Ottersen, the rector of the University of Oslo. ‘‘This is a principle that is put in place to help the inmate get back to society.’’
Ottersen said he couldn’t comment on prospective students but added it was ‘‘publicly known’’ that Breivik had applied to the university.
Others, including Education Minister Kristin Halvorsen, have said Breivik is a special case and shouldn’t enjoy the same rights as other prisoners.
The self-styled anti-Muslim militant surrendered to police on July 22, 2011, after setting off a bomb outside the government headquarters in Oslo and opening fire at a summer camp for young Labor Party activists on Utoya island. Eight people died in the bombing and 69, mostly teenagers, were killed on the island. Breivik showed no remorse for his actions, calling his victims traitors for supporting a multicultural society.
‘‘This is a special situation because we are facing a mass murderer who will never again be released into Norwegian society,’’ Halvorsen told broadcaster TV2 this week.
Breivik’s lawyers were startled by her comments, saying there is no legal basis to deny him the education rights.
Breivik was sentenced to the maximum term of 21 years. After that a court can extend his sentence if it considers him a danger to society.
