WARSAW, November 21 - RAPSI. Investigators uncovered plans for a large-scale Polish terror plot while sifting through Norwegian mass killer Anders Behring Breivik's list of contacts, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced Tuesday.

As previously reported, the Internal Security Agency of Poland has been investigating a planned terrorist attack on Polish officials. On November 9, the police arrested a 45-year-old research fellow of the Agricultural University of Krakow who had access to bomb components.

The suspect had been planning to detonate a car bomb at the site of the parliament building, while the president, the prime minister, the ministers and parliament members were inside the building.

Prime Minister Tusk said the individual had been discovered after investigating Breivik's contacts in Poland, from where the Norwegian terrorist had ordered bomb parts.
The suspect was found to have examined the route of Poland's Independence Day march on November 11, which President Bronislaw Komorowski would be attending.
The police confiscated bomb components from the detainee, including TNT and other explosives, detonators, mobile phones, wires, remote controls, bomb manufacturing manuals, weapons and over 1,000 units of ammunition.

Breivik, 33, confessed to murdering 69 people at a youth summer camp on Utoya Island and eight in a central Oslo bombing on July 22, 2011. However, he pleaded not guilty to terrorism charges, claiming that he had acted in self-defense. He claimed that he was on a crusade against multi-culturalism and the "Muslim invasion" of Europe when he carried out the attacks.

The Oslo District Court found Breivik sane and sentenced him to 21 years in prison - Norway's maximum - with the option of renewal if he is still found to pose a threat to society after the term's expiry. In delivering his sentence, the presiding judges made clear the fact that he will very likely still be deemed a threat to society in 21 years time.
