New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says the country should strengthen its firearms laws in the wake of a massacre at two mosques in Christchurch that left 49 people dead and another 42 injured.
“Our gun laws will change,” she said. “There have been attempts to change our laws in 2005, 2012 and after an inquiry in 2017, now is the time for change.”
The suspect, an Australian, is being charged with murder. Ardern said investigators are working to determine whether two others that were taken into custody in relation to the massacre were directly involved.
They were not on any watchlists in New Zealand or Australia, nor did they have any history of criminal activity, Ardern said.
