What do we know about the New Zealand attacker?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The man, whose identity cannot be revealed due to court suppression orders, arrived in New Zealand in October 2011. He became a person of national security interest in 2016.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

He had been under round-the-clock monitoring and heavy surveillance due to concerns about his ideology. He was known to multiple agencies, and was also on a terror watchlist.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Local media reports said the attacker was 32 years old and had recently been sentenced to one year of supervision for possessing IS propaganda.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors had accused him of plotting a “lone wolf” terror attack using knives, but the judge ruled that planning a terror attack was not in itself an offence under existing laws, the reports said.<\/p>\n

His internet search history and bookmarks included heroes of Isis, Islamic State dress, and New Zealand prison clothes and food, according to Stuff.<\/p>\n

Ms Ardern said that until Friday, he had not committed any offence. When asked about the man’s motivations, she said they were “Isis-inspired”.<\/p>\n

Questions have been raised about why action against him was not taken before six people were injured – especially since he was under close surveillance.<\/p>\n

“The reality is, that when you are surveilling someone on a 24\/7 basis, it is not possible to be immediately next to them at all times. The staff intervened as quickly as they could and they prevented further injury in what was a terrifying situation,” said Mr Coster.<\/p>\n

He added that the attacker was very surveillance-conscious, and that teams needed to maintain a distance to be effective.<\/p>\n

Authorities are confident the attacker was acting alone and that there is no further danger to the community, according to Mr Coster.<\/p>\n
