Temel Atacocugu, mosque attack survivor, says the physical and psychological recovery will take a long time.
Several survivors and relatives of those killed in the March 15 mosque shootings in Christchurch have been appointed to a new board set up to ensure those affected by the terror attack have a clear voice.
Seven members of Christchurch Muslim community have been appointed to the newly-established March 15 Collective Impact Board, which was one of the key recommendations of the Royal Commission of Inquiry into the 2019 attack on Christchurch Mosques.
Among those selected is Sheikh Hasan Rubel, who was shot three times in the leg, and Dr Maysoon Salama, whose son Ata Mohammad Ata Elayyan was one of 51 people killed at the two Christchurch mosques on March 15, 2019.
