A Christchurch Islamic leader who survived the March 15 mosque shootings has today released a personal message on the second anniversary of the attacks.
Imam Gamal Fouda was giving his Friday prayer on the afternoon of March 15, 2019, when a terrorist stormed the Masjid Al Noor on Deans Ave and opened fire.
He survived but 42 of his congregation were murdered before the gunman travelled across town to the Linwood Mosque and shot dead another nine people.
