An 18‑year‑old man has appeared in Christchurch District Court today charged with distributing a live stream of the Christchurch mosque shootings.
He has also been charged with publishing objectionable publications in the week prior to the attacks, including a photo of the mosque with the words "target identified", and messages inciting extreme violence.
The man, who has interim name suppression, was arrested by the police on Friday.
Police have said they do not believe he was directly involved in the attacks.
