A 27-year-old man will appear in Christchurch District Court today after an online threat to the Linwood Islamic Centre and the Al Noor Mosque. Both mosques were searched on Tuesday after a member of the public warned police about a post on the 4chan website. The man has been charged with threatening to kill. Anjum Rahman is with the Islamic Women's Council. She spoke to Susie Ferguson.
