Norwegian mass killer Anders Behring Breivik gave permission to be filmed in court for the first time when he appeared at a remand hearing in Oslo on Monday (February 6).

The hearing, required under Norwegian law to keep a suspect in prison before trial, was Breivik's fifth but the first time he allowed television cameras and photographers to film him.

His trial is scheduled to start on April 16.

In Norway's worst attacks since World War Two, Behring killed 77 people in July by bombing central Oslo and then gunning down dozens of mostly teenagers at a summer camp of the ruling Labour Party's youth wing.
