CHRISTCHURCH: New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the government would announce new gun laws within a few days.

Brenton Tarrant, an Australian, and a suspected white supremacist, has been charged with murder. Tarrant, 28, was remanded without a plea.

PM Ardern said within 10 days of the horrific act of terrorism, the government will have announced reforms which will make the community safer. (Agencies)
