He then began opening fire on people sitting outside at tables. Two men aged 54 and 60 were fatally wounded in the rampage and another nine people suffered bullet wounds. A number of others were also hurt. In all 19 bullets were fired.Police believe Oslo’s LGBT community was targeted for extreme religious motives. The shooting took place as the Pride festival neared an end in the early hours of 25 June 2022.As the video was shown, some of those inside the court were visibly shocked, according to Norwegian correspondents in the room.When Judge Eirik Aass asked if he was guilty of the charges, Zaniar Matapour shook his head and went on to ask why the trial was taking place during the month of Ramadan, the holiest month in the Muslim calendar. He complained that the court did not sit during the Christian holiday of Easter.”I’ve not perceived a conflict between the conduct of this trial and Ramadan,” the judge replied.State prosecutor Sturla Henriksbo told the trial at Oslo District Court that the suspect had recorded an oath of allegiance to so-called Islamic State (IS) shortly before the attack.He detailed how in the hours before the shooting the suspect had visited a mosque then taken a taxi to central Oslo from the suburb of Bjorndal, before taking a tram to the scene of the attack carrying a sports bag.The prosecutor said the 44-year-old had been in trouble with police while still a teenager and had received psychiatric treatment at the time. Then he was reported to Norway’s PST police security service in 2016 because of concerns that he was becoming radicalised, he added.Since his arrest Zaniar Matapour has refused to answer police questions and is not expected to speak in his defence during the trial.Months before the trial began he was assessed as legally responsible for his actions, although one of three experts concluded that he was not.If found guilty, he could face 30 years in jail. However, he could also be sent to a secure psychiatric facility,Norway’s PST was criticised in the aftermath of the shooting in a report that said the attack could have been prevented. The PST chief apologised for failing to respond to a warning from the intelligence service of a possible threat.Eleven days before the attack a known Norwegian Islamist called Arfan Bhatti posted a picture on social media of a burning Pride flag. The suspect had been seen in the same car as Mr Bhatti earlier in 2022 and the official report said that if the PST had acted then the shooting may have been averted. Mr Bhatti is currently in Pakistan and fighting extradition to Norway. He has denied having anything to do with the attack.Related TopicsOsloNorwayMore on this storyOslo shooting treated as Islamist terrorismPublished25 June 2022Top StoriesGaza medics tell BBC that Israeli troops beat and humiliated themPublished8 hours agoAbbott calls Tory donor’s comments frighteningPublished1 hour agoHaiti’s prime minister resigns as law and order collapsePublished7 hours agoFeaturesThe Ukrainian sea drones hunting Russian warshipsIs pressure on Kate after photo chaos unfair?The rise and fall of Haiti’s Ariel HenryHow the miners’ strike changed the role of womenSchoolboy recounts daring escape from Nigerian kidnap gangWhen wind turbine blades get old what’s next?’We don’t feel the joy of Ramadan in Rafah’ Video’We don’t feel the joy of Ramadan in Rafah’All By Myself songwriter Eric Carmen dies aged 74On Russia’s Arctic border, Nato’s new members prep for warElsewhere on the BBCWhere can women live their best lives?The global quest begins with body image…AttributionSoundsCan they complete a sub-zero expedition?Four famous women head to the Arctic for Comic Relief’s coldest, most extreme challengeAttributioniPlayerHow can jewellery unlock an entire identity?Dr Maria Maclennan is the world’s first, and only, Forensic JewellerAttributionSoundsMisled with the promise of a home…Panorama investigates the mobile home swindleAttributioniPlayerMost Read1More than a fifth of adults not looking for work2Abbott calls Tory donor’s comments frightening3Ukraine-based groups claim raids into Russia4Andrew Tate appears in court over UK arrest warrant5Al Pacino explains awkward Oscars announcement6Hollywood stars lead the way at Olivier nominations7Two bailed in funeral home investigation8Inquest into boy’s ‘social media craze’ death opens9Baptisms ‘a ticket’ for some asylum seekers – vicar10Gaza medics tell BBC that Israeli troops beat and humiliated them

The company that owns the ship said it is cooperating with the investigation, according to reports.One report quoted a resident saying water supply and internet service in his neighbourhood were suspended.In October 2021, provincial authorities had identified the need to reinforce the bridge, including constructing “collision avoidance facilities” at four bridge piers, CCTV reported.The deadline for these works to be completed was postponed three times, most recently to August this year, according to the report.Guangzhou lies on the Pearl River delta and one is of the busiest seaports in mainland China.Nansha, the district where the incident took place, is the fastest-growing port in southern China, with cargo volumes increasing every year since it opened in 2004.
