“They can’t put his soul into peace because he’s still out there and he’s not buried yet.”
The 20-year-old student told BuzzFeed News he was studying at the University of Canterbury library that day, focused on an assignment.
But at around 1.45pm, his phone pinged with a message from one of his uncles, sent to Khan’s family group chat on Viber. It said there was an attack happening at the mosque. The family found out Safi was dead overnight, Khan told BuzzFeed News on Sunday morning. They had been in limbo since Friday afternoon, drifting between Christchurch hospital, the family assistance centre at Hagley College, and home, not knowing for sure what had happened to Safi.
Yasin Hokati, honorary consul at the Afghanistan embassy in New Zealand, told BuzzFeed News he did not have official confirmation from police or the ministry of foreign affairs of Safi’s passing, but understood that his family and community believe he is among the dead.
