He said the terrorism charge was justified on the basis of the number of injured and dead people, the number of crime scenes and an “overall assessment” indicating that the accused intended to “create serious fear in the population.”Īt the time of the press conference, police had attempted to question the suspect but had not yet been successful in doing so, Hatlo said. Hatlo said police had charged the suspect with “murder, attempted murder and terrorist acts.” We do not currently have any indications of that,” the PST said. “We are now contributing all the relevant information we have to the Oslo police district and are working to clarify whether more acts of violence may be planned. The Norwegian Police Security Service (PST) announced in a tweet Saturday that it was “informed about the shooting in Oslo on Saturday.”
Norway’s domestic intelligence service said it was working to clarify whether more acts of violence may be planned after the shooting.
