Suspect Brenton Tarrant allegedly used a helmet-mounted camera to broadcast video of the al Noor mosque attack in Christchurch.
New Zealand’s Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has said she will be holding discussions with Facebook after it emerged that the suspect in the mosque shootings had apparently live-streamed the attack.
Australian Brenton Tarrant, 28, allegedly used a helmet-mounted camera to broadcast 17 minutes of live video of the rampage at the al Noor mosque in Christchurch.
The footage was broadcast live on Facebook, and a “manifesto” denouncing immigrants as “invaders” was also posted online via links to related social media accounts.
Ms Ardern said her office was one of more then 30 recipients of the emailed manifesto just nine minutes before guns were fired, but it did not include location or specific details.
