Mumbai – India’s popular cricketer Virat Kohli tweeted on Friday that his heart goes out in support of the Muslim worshipers who were mercilessly killed in Al-Noor Mosque by a White Kiwi terrorist in Christchurch Newzealand.

He tweeted, “Shocking and tragic. My heart goes out to the ones affected by this cowardly act at Christchurch. Thoughts with the Bangladesh team as well, stay safe.”

The dreadful terrorist attack that has ever taken place on the soil of Newzealand has killed over 49 Muslims while over 40 are seriously injured.
