Anders Behring Breivik, who set off a bomb and massacred young people at a camp in Norway, is to go on trial in the capital Oslo, BBC News reported.
He is accused of killing 77 people – eight in the car bomb attack in Oslo and the rest – mainly teenagers – at the camp, organised by the governing Labour party, on Utoeya Island.
He has confessed to the killings, but denies criminal responsibility.
He says the party is a “legitimate target” because it tolerates Muslims.
If the court declares Breivik criminally insane, he will be committed to psychiatric care, but if he is judged to be mentally stable, he will go to prison.
