(MENAFN- Arab News) OSLO: Four years after the attacks by Anders Behring Breivik Norway on Wednesday opened an exhibition dedicated to the tragedy that some fear could become a 'hall of fame' for the mass murderer.

The exhibition has triggered controversy as several objects used by Breivik in his July 2011 rampage such as the remains of the van where he hid his bomb and the fake ID and insignia he used to impersonate a police officer are on display.
The right-wing extremist killed 77 people in in the worst peacetime atrocity in Norway claiming he was fighting against multiculturalism and a 'Muslim invasion.'
The temporary exhibition is housed on the ground floor of the government complex in Oslo that the killer now 36 unsuccessfully tried to blow up with a massive car bomb.
'The information center should spread knowledge in order to prevent hatred violence and terrorism' Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg said at the opening ceremony in a speech that brought her close to tears.
'This year terror struck again in Europe in Copenhagen and in Paris' a black-clad Solberg told an audience of about 200 people.
'This week it hit young people in Turkey' she added referring to the suicide bombing that killed 32 people on Monday.
On July 22 2011 Breivik detonated a 950-kilo (over 2000 pound) car bomb at the foot of the 17-story office building of the prime minister current NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg who also attended Wednesday's ceremony.
The blast killed eight people.
Then in what is believed to be the deadliest peacetime shooting incident ever committed by a single man he opened fire on a gathering of the Labour Party's youth wing on the island of Utoya killing another 69 people most of them teenagers.
Breivik who has never shown any remorse is currently in solidary confinement serving a 21-year prison sentence that can be extended indefinitely if he is considered a threat.
