On March 15, armed with an Eftpos machine, Abdul Aziz Wahabzadah attacked and chased off a shooter at the Linwood mosque in Christchurch. After the sentencing today, he was visibly jubilant.
Outside court, he thanked people for their support and had only scathing words for the terrorist.
"You are the flower of one garden - Adam and Eve. We are all brother and sister," he told the crowd.
"But he was the manure of the same garden... God bless all of us from an evil person like him."
Mr Wahabzadah also confronted the terrorist in court yesterday, telling him: “You should thank God on that day, I didn’t catch you. That will be a different story."
