Haji Daoud Nabi sought asylum in New Zealand more than 40 years ago after fleeing Afghanistan with his two sons.
Christchurch, the place he's called home since 1977, offered hope and safety for him and his family. But Nabi was murdered Friday by a gunman who stormed into two mosques and killed 49 people in a rampage that stunned the world. While authorities have not released details and information on the victims, his death was confirmed by his son, Yama Nabi. A number of Pakistani citizens were also in the mosques.
