Public prosecution department to look at Norway shooter mailing list

The public prosecution department will study the list of addresses in an email from Norway gunman Anders Behring Breivik to see if any are in the Netherlands, Trouw reports on Thursday.


The mailing was sent out just hours before Breivik went on the rampage, killing 76 people.
Dutch right-wing columnist Erik van Goor told the Telegraaf he was on the list of people who had been sent an email. However, Van Goor said he had not actually received anything in either his inbox or spam.
‘I think Breivik must have gotten my name from another mailing list… I have never had anything to do with him,’ he told the paper.
In the manfesto, Breivik details how he collected email addresses from people he thought may be sympathetic to his cause.
According to one Belgian recipient, at least one .nl address is on the contact list.
On Wednesday, Trouw said there would be no investigation into any Dutch link.
