Norway court to allow media at terrorism suspect's hearing

Sep 13, 2011, 13:19 GMT 

Oslo - A Norwegian court Monday rejected a police request that the pending
custody hearing for the man accused of the twin attacks that killed 77
people in July be held behind closed doors. 

Anders Behring Breivik was due to appear in court on September 19. But the
police want to extend his custody by a further eight weeks, with four weeks
in solitary confinement. 

At previous hearings, the police were granted requests for closed-door
sessions, since they could not rule out that Breivik might have had
accomplices. 

The Oslo district court said those decisions were an exception. The police
said they would likely appeal Monday's ruling. 

At the pending custody hearing, media representatives, survivors, next of
kin and attorneys representing victims of the attacks were to be allowed to
follow the proceedings but were to be issued with gag orders, the court
said. 

It said that the hearing on extending Breivik's remand would be a 'brief'
session and it was unlikely that new information concerning the case would
emerge. 

Attorneys representing next of kin consulted by the court said they wanted a
closed-door hearing. 

Police say that Breivik admitted to detonating a car bomb that killed eight
people in central Oslo and a shooting that claimed 69 lives at a youth camp
organized by the Labour Party. 

His attorney Geri Lippestad welcomed the ruling saying 'this is what we have
argued for.' 

'This is in line with Norwegian legal tradition and an important legal
principle,' Lippestad told news agency NTB.
