New Zealand court sentences mosque shooter to life imprisonment without parole

In New Zealand, a court has sentenced a man who killed 51 Muslim worshippers in New Zealand’s deadliest shooting to life imprisonment without parole. It is the first time such a sentence has been handed down in New Zealand. Earlier, Brenton Tarrant admitted to 51 charges of murder, 40 counts of attempted murder, and one charge of committing a terrorist act during the 2019 shooting rampage at two Christchurch mosques which he live-streamed on Facebook.
