    Lawyers representing the man accused of the mosque terror attacks have applied to move his trial out of Christchurch

    Lawyers representing the man accused of the mosque terror attacks have applied to move his trial out of Christchurch


    Lawyer Shane Tait says they have filed an application at the High Court to change the location, but a date's not been set to hear their argument.

    He will not comment on reasons for the requested move.

    But Tait says alternative locations would likely be Auckland or Wellington.

    The 28-year-old accused gunman entered not guilty pleas during a short appearance at the High Court at Christchurch in June.

    The Australian national faces a total of 51 murder charges, 40 attempted murder charges and a terrorism charge.
