The killer has been named as 18-year-old Ali David Sonboly by German media

It has been revealed Sonboly was undergoing psychological treatment for mental illness and was obsessed with mass-shootings.

German investigators say there is an “obvious link” between Friday’s shooting at a Munich mall and far-right Norwegian killer AndersBehring Breivik.

“The link is obvious,” said Munich police chief Hubertus Andrae, describing the gunman as obsessed with mass killings.

He added the killer researched the theme of rampages and may have researched Breivik’s lethal killing spree.

Friday’s carnage came on the @fth anniversary of right-wing fanatic Breivik’s massacre in Norway that killed 77 people, many of themyoungsters.

A friend told BILD newspaper Sonboly had a picture of Breivik as his Whatsapp pro@le image, and said he was a “fan of massmurders”.

The German prosecutor also revealed he had a book on shootings entitled “Rampage in Head: Why Students Kill” in his bedroom.

“So far we have no data about him being a criminal. In 2010, he was recorded for involvement with youngsters and regarding aburglary.”

The teen shot dead nine people - nearly all of whom were aged between 14 and 21 - before turning the gun on himself.

His motive remains unclear but police are probing a video taken of the attack, where the gunman complains of being "bullied forseven years".

Uncon@rmed reports also claim he has links to far-right German group PEGIDA.

The posting, sent from a young woman's account, urged people to come to the mall at 4 p.m., saying: "I'll give you something if youwant, but not too expensive."

Earlier eyewitness reports claimed crazed Sonboly shouted "Allahu Akbar", "God is Great" in Arabic, as he launched the attack.

One woman who wished to only be known as Lauretta told CNN she was in the McDonald's restaurant at the time of the attack andsaw many casualties that were children.

She said: "I hear like an alarm and boom, boom, boom ... and he's still killing the children. The children were sitting to eat. they can'trun."
