6:54 am
see where the bullet hit them how exactly they died because all that information is going to be critical to any criminal court case that will come and you can't rush it you can't make mistakes because once a body is buried for it hard to get it back and have another look so grim though it sounds all that process is underway has been underway all weekend and i do understand why it's taking a while but they're also very frustrated because they want to get. already out there burials now man's family told me that they're hoping to get to bury their father grandfather on tuesday morning and it's expected that all the bodies will be released by the end of wednesday that's certainly what just interrupt them the prime minister here has promised in terms of all information we're expecting a press conference from the police later on monday that if anyone else has died of their injuries will be expected to hear that at the moment the number killed overall still stands at fifty we'll also hear i expect from the hospital about

those in hospital being treated for their injuries as of sunday night thirty four people remained in hospital about ten or twelve of those still in a critical condition so expecting those formal press conferences as the day goes on but it's what's happening in individual homes like the one i've just come from that really tells you the horror of all of this because that was fifteen members of his family including his wife fourteen direct descendants his wife as well fifteen people profoundly affected and that's being repeated forty nine other times around this city right now andrew thomas thank you very much indeed. a suspect charged with the shootings is from australia and his hometown of grafton some of trenton tyrant's family members have spoken of the shock and disbelief we're all gov's mick we don't know what to think it is. you know the major is saying he's pretended for a long time so he's of this league not of san ramon i don't think it's only since

6:58 am
what did you think when you heard that someone from grafton was involved. others had a message for christ's church people can just reach out and say you know we don't know what went wrong but obviously that will come in but you know we just. appraise with your info and hope that you can get some to the closure while the town family has deep roots here community members say it's keeping a low profile following the attack in christchurch we've managed to speak with people who knew brenton tarrant well they say they don't want to appear on camera because they don't want to be associated with the alleged killer of fifty people they say the man accused of the christ church attacks is not the man they once knew . al-jazeera are often. will be counted as a security analyst so the director of strategic assessment for thirty six parallel assessments he joins us by skype from new zealand thank you very much for your time

7:00 am
a gun license and purchased the weapons that he used in the attack and what kind of scared a problem is that with white supremacy and using and. well there are a distinct minority i mean let's be very clear most new zealanders are tolerant people but they are a well known element of society particularly in the cyber south island and what we have to understand here is that new zealand has a bullying culture in some sectors of society but there is a lot of bowling in and that includes bowling along class lines along ethnic lines along racial lines and white supremacists are an integral part of that bullying culture they just take it out on immigrants and others who they perceive as the enemy i think the problem here is that when you do threat assessments you think of possible threats probable threats imminent threats and whether it was
