A Norwegian court has sentenced a gunman to 21 years in prison \u2013 with a minimum term of 14 years \u2013 for killing his teenage step-sister and opening fire at a mosque.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Philip Manshaus, 22, opened fire at the al-Noor Islamic Centre in Baerum, west of the capital Oslo, last August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several shots were fired in the mosque but nobody was seriously hurt. Manshaus was overpowered before police arrived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was treated as an act of far-right racist terror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police found evidence that Manshaus was inspired by Brenton Tarrant, accused of deadly attacks on two mosques in the New Zealand city of Christchurch in March 2019. Tarrant has pleaded guilty to 51 charges of murder in New Zealand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 14-year minimum sentence for Manshaus is more than the minimum 10 years in the case of Anders Behring Breivik, the right-wing extremist who killed 77 people in Norway in 2011. Norway increased the minimum sentences for such cases in 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manshaus was heavily armed when he stormed into the mosque last August, but he was overpowered by a 65-year-old retired Pakistani air force officer, Mohammad Rafiq. He pinned Manshaus down and managed to disarm him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shortly after the attack, the body of the gunman\u2019s 17-year-old Chinese-born stepsister Johanne Zhangjia Ihle-Hansen was found at a house in Baerum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The verdict read out by judge Annika Lindstroem said Manshaus had visited neo-Nazi websites including pages calling for a \u201crace-based\u201d civil war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said he went into the mosque \u201cwith the purpose of killing as many Muslims as possible\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In court on 7 May Manshaus flashed an \u201cOK\u201d hand sign used by far-right extremists<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In court Manshaus was unrepentant and voiced admiration for the Christchurch killer, who filmed and broadcast the mosque shootings live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manshaus himself wore a helmet camera and filmed his mosque shooting, but failed to broadcast the attack online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In court Manshaus also cited Adolf Hitler and Breivik as role models, spoke of a so-called \u201cgenocide of the European people\u201d and called the Holocaust a myth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And on 7 May he used an \u201cOK\u201d hand gesture used by far-right extremists<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On 12 August Manshaus appeared in court with bruises and scratches on his face<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

He had black eyes and bruises on his face and neck when he first appeared in court last year, after being overpowered in the mosque. Norwegian broadcaster NRK says he used his father\u2019s rifle and a shotgun in the attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The court rejected the defence\u2019s argument that Manshaus was mentally unfit to stand trial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside the prison sentence, Manshaus was ordered to pay compensation to the victims\u2019 relatives and legal fees of 100,000 krone (\u00a316,800).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
