Play on Norwegian mass killer causes scandalJanuary 19, 2012 - 14:41 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - A Danish theater is drawing criticism for plans to stage a play based on the manifesto of the man whose bomb-and-shooting spree killed 77 in Norway, AP reports. Christian Lollike, head of the small Cafe Teateret, says the idea is to use confessed killer Anders Behring Breivik's text and enter his mind set as a means of avoiding a repeat of the July 22 rampage. Lollike told the Jan 19 edition of the Politiken newspaper that "it was a terrible tragedy" but "it can happen again." Lollike was not available for comments. Relatives of the victims said the monologue "is an acceptance of his acts," while Danish lawmakers harshly condemned the idea but said they would not intervene, citing the freedom of speech. The play "Manifesto 2083" is expected to open Aug. 23. Azerbaijani authorities report that they have already resettled 3,000 people in the Nagorno-Karabakh town of Stepanakert. On June 10, Azerbaijani President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev will leave for Turkey on a working visit. Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev arrived in Moscow on April 22 to hold talks with Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin. Authorities said a total of 192 Azerbaijani troops were killed and 511 were wounded during Azerbaijan’s offensive. Partner news |
