'We should have been safe here' - Christchurch Muslims respond to report

From Checkpoint, 5:21 pm on 8 December 2020

'We should have been safe here' - the reaction this afternoon from Christchurch's Muslim communities.

The Imam of Al Noor mosque, Gamal Fouda, says he reported suspicious people around the Deans Avenue mosque, and is disappointed by the lack of action taken by police.

He says the report shows there is institutional prejudice and unconscious bias in government agencies.

He spoke about the change he wants to see as a result of the Royal Commission report.
