CHRISTCHURCH/WELLINGTON - The death toll in the New Zealand mosque shootings has risen to 50 after investigators found another body at one of the mosques, New Zealand police said on Sunday, as authorities worked to formally identify victims and release their bodies to families.

Tarrant was remanded without a plea and is due back in court on April 5 where police said he was likely to face further charges. The bodies of the victims had not yet been released to families because investigations were ongoing, but police were working as quickly as they could to do that, Police Commissioner Mike Bush said at a media conference in Wellington.“We have to be absolutely clear on cause of death and confirm their identity before that can happen. But we are so aware of the cultural and religious needs, so we are doing that as quickly and sensitively as possible,” Bush said.

Bush said there were also 50 people injured. Thirty-six were being treated in Christchurch Hospital, with two remaining in critical condition, and one child was at a dedicated children’s hospital. The majority of victims were migrants or refugees from countries such as Pakistan, India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Turkey, Somalia and Afghanistan. Muslims account for just over 1 percent of New Zealand’s population.

Being one whom has lost a family member, to a violent and senseless act (My Uncle being murdered) one person nor billions can begin to define the understanding of loss. All we can do is extend our hearts and prayers to these families.

This is caused by trumpism and his hatred to all not like him

😢

Too sad for words. RIP dear people, and may your loved ones remember the happy times spent with you far more than the day you were taken. 💖

May the soul's of those departed find peace.

Shooting death🤔

If we could just live as one, regardless of our differences.
