Mass killer Breivik sues Norway in bid to end prison isolation

Anders Behring Breivik, the far-right fanatic who killed 77 people in a bombing and shooting rampage in Norway in 2011, will ask a court on Monday to end his isolation in prison, saying it violates his human rights. Breivik killed eight people with a car bomb in Oslo then gunned down 69 others, most of them teenagers, at a Labour Party youth camp in Norway's worst peacetime atrocity. Breivik spends his time in a section of Ringerike high-security prison, 70km (40 miles) northwest of Oslo - the third prison where he has been held.
