Two people were killed and nine were seriously wounded in the shooting at three locations, chiefly outside the London Pub, a popular gay bar, on June 25, 2022.

The Oslo District Court said Zaniar Matapour, 45, fired 10 rounds with a machine gun and eight shots with a handgun into the crowd. Prosecutors said Matapour has sworn allegiance to the Islamic State group.

It said Matapour had sworn allegiance to the Islamic State group and “has been radicalised for several years”.

His 30-year sentence was the highest penalty in Norway since terror legislation was changed in 2015.

Matapour can request parole after 20 years but can only be released if he is deemed no longer dangerous.

Prosecutor Aud Kinsarvik Gravås called it “the right outcome” and “a historically severe punishment”. Matapour’s lawyer, Marius Dietrichson, said it was a “severe punishment” and that they have not yet decided whether to appeal.
