Oslo, Norway (TDN) -- The mother of Anders Behring Breivik the man known as Norway’s worst mass murderer, has admitted to Police that she helped her son launder hundreds of thousands of Euros.

Breivik has admitted to carrying out terrorist attacks in Norway on July 22, 2011, which left 77 people dead. He claims that the attacks were "necessary" to alert the Norwegian people to what he believes is a creeping Islamic takeover.

A Norwegian newspaper is reporting that Behring’s mother admitted to laundering the funds through 14 offshore accounts including in Dominica, Latvia, the United States, Antigua and Barbuda and St Vincent and the Grenadines.

The funds were raised through Breivik’s sale of fake diplomas over the internet. Customers paid the money directly to his offshore accounts in some cases using the Paypal system. In other instances the money was paid into his mother’s own account, which was then transferred to him.

Between 2003-06, more than 600 000 euros is believed to have been transferred through the offshore accounts.

Breivik in turn used ATM cards to withdraw small sums from several Norwegian ATM’s so as not to arouse suspicion. Police believe that this money was used to plan and execute his deadly attacks that left 77 people dead including scores of young people who were participating in a youth camp.

The 33 year old Breivik who is said to have strong links to neo-Nazi and far right groups will face trial beginning on April 16. Prosecutors are expected to proceed on the assumption that he is insane and argue that he be forcibly committed to a mental institution.
