Pakistani community rallies around Christchurch widows

From Morning Report, 8:10 am on 26 March 2019

The Pakistani community in Christchurch is rallying to support the wives and children of at least seven men who were killed while they prayed at Al Noor mosque. Tens of thousands of dollars has been raised by Pakistanis and Muslim associations around the country to help support families whose relatives ones were killed or injured in the attacks. But many of the widows need extra support because they have limited English, cannot drive and have not been able to access their husbands's bank accounts since they died. Anusha Bradley reports.
