National Party leader Christopher Luxon visited the Sandringham Dairy on Saturday, 26 November 2022, the site of one of the most horrific crimes in New Zealand in recent times. He paid his respects to the victim, Janak Patel and his family.
Mr Luxon said on his social Media “He came to this country with hopes and dreams of a brighter future. He had much to look forward to in New Zealand. It is heart-breaking how his life ended. It isn’t fair and it isn’t right.”
Mr Luxon also said that New Zealand is a much richer place, socially, culturally, and economically, for all the contributions from migrant families.
While the community appreciated Mr Luxon’s response and efforts to connect with the community, many have expressed their frustration over the lack of strong reaction from the Prime Minister, Minister of Ethnic Affairs Priyanca Radhakrishnan and all Labour MPs.
