Judge says suspect in Norway terror attacks pleaded not guilty, says he wanted to save Europe
Norway massacre suspect admitted killings, judge says

Breivik told court that he wanted to save Western Europe from Muslim takeover

OSLO — Anders Behring Breivik told a court that he wanted to save Western Europe from a Muslim takeover, the judge said Monday.

The suspect in the bombing and mass shooting that left more than 90 dead on Friday made a brief appearance at a closed-door hearing.

Afterwards, the judge gave details of the hearing. He said that Breivik wanted to give a "strong signal" with his attack, and that the massacre at the youth gathering on Utoeya island was aimed at hampering further recruitment to the Labour Party.

The judge granted the prosecution's request that Breivik be detained for a further eight weeks, including four weeks in isolation. That can be extended before trial.
