Anders Behring Breivik planned more attacks than the bombing and shooting spree that killed 77 people, Norwegian police prosecutor Paal-Frederik Hjort Kraby said Saturday.
``He wanted to do more, that we know. But if he wanted to do that... the same day or (at another time) we don't know for sure,'' Hjort Kraby told AFP.
Norwegian media reported that the right-wing extremist, who admitted to the July 22 shooting on an island summer camp and a car-bomb blast in Oslo earlier the same day, also wanted to hit the royal palace and the ruling party headquarters.
It is still not clear whether Behring Breivik acted alone or was working with other ``cells``, as he claimed following his arrest, though police seem to be favouring the first scenario.
Asked if he had said anything about his plans going wrong, Hjort Kraby replied: ``He has mentioned that he was alone, and that because he was alone the logistics were more difficult, with the cars and the transport, and he's been telling us that's why things took more time than he had expected.''
It also emerged that Behring Breivik had been saving money for some time to be able to fund his actions.
``He has said that he's been financing all this by himself, he's been working very hard to save money to use it in his actions,'' Hjort Kraby said. ``And obviously this is something we're checking by going through his properties and his bank accounts.''
The self-confessed killer, who has admitted responsibility but declined to enter a guilty plea, had fully cooperated with police investigations so far, Hjort Kraby said.
