Facebook

A Dubai resident has spoken to ARN News about his feelings after finding flowers outside a local mosque following the terrorist attack in New Zealand.

Imran was attending the mosque in the Springs Community with his six-year-old son, when he saw the flowers with a note of apology attached, condemning the atrocity that occurred in Christchurch.

Although he is touched by the gesture, Imran says he doesn't want people to feel apologetic for the actions of one man.
