that was the chief commissioner police, mike bush, taking questions from the press. of police to try to keep people feeling safe here. he said of course as people return to work tomorrow, it is monday, to expect extra police presence at their schools, offices, evenin presence at their schools, offices, even in the air. they will ensure that people are made to feel safe. he talked about some of the criticism over the response time that police had made on friday when, of course, the attack had taken place and he said of calls within six minutes of police being called, they were on the scene, they were armed, and within 36 minutes, they had apprehended the suspect. he continued to add there was 200 extra police staff in deployed here in christchurch, including defence force, they have taken every available resource to try to keep people safe. so that was the police commissioner mike bush, we heard from his deputy and little earlier, as well is the chief coroner, and of course interest the last hour or so we heard from the prime minister, jacinda ardern, she talked about

yes we've heard regularly really since the attack took place from the police commissioner mike bush and there hasn't been a lot of detail about what exactly was going to come next in much detail about the gunman himself we know there's only one suspect they say that he was a sole gunman all the day and he has appeared in court once last saturday and it was remanded to appear again on april fifth so far only charged with one count of murder of course we're expecting many many more to come the police commissioner mike bush is now saying that for a start there was some new information that said they were able to arrest him twenty one minutes after the attack began after the first emergency call came in so it was a pretty swift police operation that swung into action and he said there was no doubt that they were able to save more lives with the speed of their response to this he said that he hadn't finished the attack and he was going on to another location but they know exactly what their location was going to be but at the moment they're not divulging exactly where the gunman was going to

so as far as the case goes that's pretty much all we know at the moment the police commissioner mike bush said again on wednesday morning that he fully understands the concerns of the family members but he said they are trying to build a murder case here and making mistakes at this stage would be extremely disappointing and he also said that giving the wrong body back to a family would be an unforgivable mistake so that perhaps gives you an idea of the difficulties that the stars are facing inside the hospital conducting the post-mortems of the identifications and perhaps it's also an indication of the types of severe injuries that some of these people received when thank you very much for that for now that's wayne hale live in christchurch thank you were prime minister just and told al jazeera that nations must stand against the ideology that motivated the attack it. this was not a new zealand citizen this was not someone who was raised here or who picked up their ideology here they were in a strangely and citizen who chose new zealand specifically for the effect that we are a inclusive

and the police commissioner mike bush has announced all christ church schools have been placed into lock down, adding in a statement police urgegon in central christ church to stay off the streets. again, it is a serious situation. i want to bring in now matthew rosenberg and jewuliette kayann. >> this building off of what josh was saying you're definitely going to focus on the fact the target was a mosque. obviously we don't know if the members of the mosque or you might have the equivalent of a workplace environment shooting but we do know the mosque will be a focus in whether this was a hate crime. not uncommon in new zealand, and most people might be surprised by that. but also on the public safety side because of some horrible natural disaster incidences in new zealand in particular in the christ church area, this is very, very sophisticated law enforcement management agency. i'm looking at the pictures right now. so you could be pretty confident that their response was quick, and that if they have the person or people who were doing it, we will probably hear from the police i would

that was mike bush speaking about an hour ago on the very latest details they have.ot of eyewitness accounts as to what went on around the mosques, not inside the outside as well. a senior member of the al noor mosque was in the building at the time of the shooting. he has been speaking to a journalist near the scene outside the police cordon. as a warning to viewers, he describes upsetting scenes. i was inside the mosque. i was in the side room and the imam had started the sermon. so everybody was settled, you know. it was very peaceful, calm and quiet, as usually it is when the imam starts talking, everybody is quite and it is a pin drop silence. but then, suddenly, the shooting started. it started in the main room because the shooter must have come through the hallway. i was in the side room so i did not see who was shooting. but i saw that some people were running out through my room where i was in and also i saw some people had blood on their body and some people were limping. at that moment, you know, i realised it was really serious. a couple of people that sa

mike bush warned people not to go into mosques and not just in christchurch but around new zealand because although they have four people he said thought legal in custody at this time he doesn't know whether there is still a risk and he warns that it is still very unclear it's a very fluid situation and people should stay at home and just be very careful. shocking is it are you getting a feeling of how shocking it is for the people living in the area and beyond obviously it's affected all kind of. absolutely madeira this just has never happened in christchurch this kind of terror attack. people really never expecting us we have heard that the possible suspect one of them has been identified as an australian man a white supremacist and he apparently posted on twitter that he had planned this attack and his motivation was to attack immigrants basically and this is just a revoke a prime minister just send in his spin on. make a statement saying this is not who we are as a people as the resume and as we are tolerant towards immigrants to people from around the world and this just should never

we just saw it there it is difficult to describe this about thirty minutes ago we heard from mike bush the police commissioner who gave us an update that there are now forty nine people killed and something very important a key update that we heard from him was that a man in his late twenty's has been charged with murder and he will appear in court on saturday but what we heard from the police commissioner actually leaves many questions unanswered for example this is what he had what he said about the people that are now in police custody. what i want to tell you right now is that we had no information no why you can see any information about these poor people. and i can also tell you that of being in contact with australian colleagues i have no information. at all. and i are assisting with our inquiries we never assume that there are other people involved that's why we've got a million prisons. across canterbury and right across new zealand we don't have nine or identified people that we're looking for but it would be wrong to assume that there is no one else. what is very important h

it would be wrong to assume that there is no one else something else we learned from police boss mike bush and it's actually very astonishing that the agencies and the relevant authorities both from new zealand and australia are hard nothing about the perpetrators or their preparations before hand so as you said earlier police aren't identifying the suspect yet but media are already naming a name through an alleged live stream then there was this life stream and we cannot confirm that but it looks like the attacker was live streaming everything he was dawn on facebook and everything is absolutely disturbing about this shooting spree . but the life stream is just surreal if you look at it you don't believe it's something that can happen in real life it's like a video game the authorities asked the media and the public not to show it not to share it but obviously in the first few hours after the shooting it was all over social media we're just going to show you a few screen shots from it again if you look at it just. you cannot watch it without crying or anything without getting shocked it a

there was something else we learned from mike bush which is even more astonishing the fact that he says authorities and relevant agencies both in new zealand and australia knew nothing about the perpetrators or their preparations before hand so you've said that the police aren't identifying this suspect yet but media has already named a name to allege lifestream cracked. it looks like the supposed terrorist was life streaming everything he was doing on facebook and despite the fact that the authorities were saying to the media and to the public please don't show it please don't share this stream and then the recording of it was all over social media for the first few hours after the attack and we are not going to show you that one maybe just a few screen shots but it is absolutely surreal everything is disturbing about this attack but this is just beyond words. it appears like the camera was attached to the man's face or maybe somewhere below so you can see the actual goal in fact looks like a video game and where ever the gun is pointing you can actually see the gun the man just kills

appear in court tomorrow something else that's very important here according to police commissioner mike bush was that no agency had any and full on these people on the offenders or any other perpetrators associates. in new zealand about them but also their australian call leagues according again to mr bush had no knowledge of this whatsoever before that police at this point cannot confirm if there were one or two offenders that this is very important we need to understand if the other two people in custody could one of them be the offender or could the offender still be at large that is a question that we haven't heard on cers to from the police commissioner no we haven't have when they say they said that they had apprehended the three people one they can't connect with this to they're looking into it a day into their involvement now we're definitely sure one attack or two associates and they're still trying to figure out what's going on with the fourth one yet. i'm sure you'll be updated and you'll be back in the studio thanks very much for discussing this with the safe. according to report

that was mike bush the police chief of christchurch new zealand where they has been two very serious incidents this friday morning two shootings at two mosques in christchurch on the south island there are no reports yet on the number of people killed but they often reports of multiple casualties and injuries as we continue to look at these pictures from christchurch hospital in new zealand which is on lockdown and. they. report as we heard at the top of this hour of a second shooting at a second mosque in christchurch the prime minister is speaking right now i believe this is just. who is addressing the situation let's listen to what he tells of the situation at hand personally that police have one suspect in custody and how we could be involved. also multiple scenes involved in this incident as well and police will be giving more details as they can is the situation unfolds whilst i cannot give any confirmation at the stage around fatalities and casualties what i can say is that it is clear that this is one of new zealand's. days. clearly what has. happened here is an extraordinary

the police commissioner, mike bush, said another body had been found during a search of the buildings. he said 50 others were injured, most are still in hospital. my colleague, sharanjit leyl, is in christchurch. it's 1:00 in the afternoon here in christchurch, and it's a day of mourning and remembrance, as the people of christchurch turn out to show their rejection of the hate that inspired friday's horrific attacks. people have essentially been turning out to reject the hate that inspired the attack. and a few hours ago, we heard the news that the number of those who died has risen to 50. hywell griffiths has this report. to show their grief, to show their love, christchurch's people are coming together as they try to comprehend a violent act of terror. some are just holding on to life. wasseim sati and his four—year—old daughter were both shot. he posted this message online from his hospital bed. under tight security, the man accused of friday's shooting was today brought to court to be charged with murder. ajudge has ruled that brenton tarrant‘s face should not be shown. he wore a

fifth there were a couple of interesting updates over the last few days from the police commissioner mike bush he revise some of the information that they initially gave out in terms of the police response he said that they were on the scene within six minutes of the first emergency call coming in an issue he they said that they were able to arrest the gunman within thirty six minutes they're now saying that that actually took place within twenty one minutes that they were able to ram his vehicle off the road after he left the lynwood mosque and pulled him out of his car by two country police officers no shots were fired even though when they pulled him over the police commissioner said that the gunman told those two offices that he had bombs in his car so an incredible act of bravery there also saying elizabeth that they know exactly where he was heading next the prime minister has said this is well that that he was not finished that he was they think determined to carry on with this attack and go to another location possibly locations where the police commissioner might bush say they know ex

mike bush warned people not to go into mosques and not just in christchurch but around new zealand because although they have for people he said for table in custody at this time he doesn't know whether there is still a risk and he warns that it is still very unclear it's a very fluid situation and people should stay at home and just be very careful we have heard that the possible suspect one of them has been identified as an australian man a white supremacist. and he apparently posted on twitter that he had planned the subject and as motivation was to attack immigrants basically and this is just terrific prime minister just send dern his spin on. made a statement saying this is not who we are as a people as leaders the wonders we have tolerance towards immigrants to people from around the world and let's just never have happened a lot has happened in the past few allies has a quick recap of the key moments. it was the neighborhood i saw in the main the room on the right inside it would burn people plus people some of them were dead some of them were screaming bloody but the monument left

the police commissioner, mike bush, said another body had been found during a search of the buildings. 35 of the injured are still in hospital, 13 of them in a critical condition. my colleague, sharanjit leyl, is in christchurch. let's go there now. it's 2 o'clock in the afternoon here in christchurch, we are very close to the site of the masjid al noor mosque, one of the sides of the attack. and it's a day of mourning and remembrance, as the people of christchurch turn out to show their rejection of the hate that inspired friday's horrific attacks. you can probably hear a maori tribe with a wonderful chance. a real show of solidarity. let's listen in. maori ceremony an extraordinary display as people continue to show their support for the victims, their families and, of course our rejection of the hate that inspired the attack. and a few hours ago, we heard the news that the number of those who died has risen to 50. within the past hour the chief of surgery at the canterbury district health board gave an update to the media. it is... it isa it is... it is a bit challenging the people

we heard from the police commissioner mike bush earlier today, he talked about how the suspect was arrestedal third attack, a third location, and he visited the first responders earlier today, praising their work for saving many more lives that could have been lost without their effort. she also visited cashmere high school, she made a very emotional speech, telling the students it was ok to grieve but she also asked for their help to stop the spread of racism and extremism. she told the students they could ask her anything they wa nted they could ask her anything they wanted and one of them actually asked her how she was and she said "thank you for asking, i am very sad but thank you for asking" so an emotional day for the prime minister who made her second visit to christchurch since last week‘s attack. mariko, thank you very much. mariko oi in christchurch. 300 people are now known to have died after cyclone idai hit southern africa. 200 of the victims were in mozambique, and another 100 in zimbabwe, where ministers have admitted the government failed to anticipate the magnitude of the t

we heard from the police commissioner mike bush earlier this morning. emphasised this process is crucial, vital, for the legal case, the criminal case, against the alleged attacker from friday's attack. mariko, on the identification process, i can imagine authorities really wanting to get this right. and possibly that is one of the reasons why this delay has been happening. but what are they explaining? how are they explaining it to the families of those victims because loved ones must be so very desperate to get information about who exactly was affected and killed in the attack. yes, indeed. as you can imagine the family members have been wanting to be reunited with the bodies of their loved ones that they lost in friday's attacks but because so many people died in such a short amount of time, 50 confirmed dead, and of course many other people are still being treated as well, six coroners have been working around the clock to identify the bodies and we understand 21 bodies have now been released to their families and we understand the majority of bodi

some of the other very important things that we heard from the head of police the now is there was mike bush that one man at least. appear in court on saturday and has been charged with murder however the press conference. actually leaves more questions unanswered because mr bush still cannot confirm the number of the offenders. you were there. i'm aware of that suggestion which we're working through at the moment when i have absolute clarity about. all the sharing that we never assume that there are other people involved that's why we've got to. prisons. across canterbury and right across new zealand we don't have nine or identified people that we're looking for but it would be wrong to assume that there is no want to police were indeed quick to react to this and the caught one of the suspected offenders they've been given a lot of credit for that however it is absolutely astonishing how no agency both in new zealand or austria. i knew about the perpetrators or their preparations before hand even though new zealand didn't have a history of these kind of tragedies at all now the problem mini

biggest city of this country it's not the capitol i can tell you that it took police commissioner mike bush sorry several hours to say that at least one man has been charged with murder and he will appear in court on saturday however his press conference left quite a few questions unanswered for example mr bush still can not confirm the number of offenders. you know there are. things. i'm aware of its suggestion which we're working through the moment when i have absolute clarity about. all the sharing that we never assume that there are other people involved that's why we've got to mince prisons. across canterbury and right across new zealand we don't have nine or identified people that we're looking for but it would be wrong to assume that there is no one else so police caught the offender rather quickly and they have received credit for that although it is absolutely astonishing how no agency both. were aware of any of the perpetrators or their preparations before hand earlier we also heard from the prime minister of new zealand and she had something very emotional to say about why our co

new zealand's police commissioner, mike bush, says there are four people in custody. start by saying we are currently dealing with an unprecedented situation in new zealand. it is very grave, very serious. we have dealt with an active shooter situation. we have multiple fatalities at this point i cannot say how many but it is significant. they occurred in two locations, to mosques in christchurch. one at denes avenue and the other at linea avenue. police have those locations lockdown. —— lynwood avenue. we have four people in custody. we are unaware of other people but we cannot assume there are not others at large. we have a number of schools in lockdown. we are currently making sure we have enough staff to saturate the area with enough equipment to ensure that when we release that lockdown people can get home safely. we are in the process of that and it will happen very shortly. we are pouring resources into that area, every available canterbury and staff member and people nearby, other emergency services also, are saturating that area with visibility to ensure that
