Australia-born Brenton Tarrant stood largely impassive in the dock wearing handcuffs and a white prison smock, as the judge read the first of what are expected to be a host of murder charges he is likely to face. Fifty people were wounded in the carnage, and doctors have worked round the clock to treat the 36 people still in hospital for gunshot wounds and other injuries sustained in the attacks.The attack on the Al Noor and Linwood mosques has shaken this usually peaceful country, which prides itself on welcoming refugees fleeing violence or persecution.
Ardern said the victims came from across the Muslim world, with Turkey, Bangladesh, and Malaysia among the countries rendering consular assistance.Sahra Ahmed, a New Zealander of Somali origin, said she was touched by the PM’s gesture.Police are now trying to piece together answers to the difficult questions of why and how this happened.
