Published March 16th, 2019 - 10:05 GMT

Residents pay their respects by placing flowers for the victims of the mosques attacks in Christchurch on March 16, 2019.

A right-wing extremist who filmed himself rampaging through two mosques in the quiet New Zealand city of Christchurch killing 49 worshippers appeared in court on a murder charge March 16, 2019.

Australian-born 28-year-old Brenton Tarrant appeared in the dock wearing handcuffs and a white prison shirt, sitting impassively as the judge read a single murder charge against him. A raft of further charges are expected.
