Tarrant sacked a court-appointed lawyer after his first court appearance on 16 March, raising fears he wanted to represent himself and attempt to use any trial as a propaganda platform.

CHRISTCHURCH - The man accused of attacking two mosques in Christchurch last month will face 50 murder charges when he appears in court on Friday, New Zealand police said.

Tarrant will appear via video link in the Christchurch court from a maximum-security prison in Auckland. They may relate to whether the court deems the attack a terrorist act, something Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has repeatedly labelled the atrocity. New Zealand's Corrections Department revealed last month that Tarrant was segregated from other prisoners and able to be observed constantly, either directly by staff via CCTV camera.Local media have reported that if convicted, he will likely face long-term isolation to prevent him from being targeted by the largely Polynesian prison population over his white supremacist views.
