WARNING: Some readers may find the contents of this story distressing
A man called Parliament House and threatened to go to schools and start 鈥渒illing kids鈥 after seemingly becoming frustrated at people 鈥渢aking advantage鈥 of his family.
Hamilton man Abdul Shamil Javed鈥檚 February 26 threat was taken so seriously that Wellington security staff immediately called the police, and his phone number was traced.
Police went to Javed鈥檚 house and his father gave the officers consent to search his room where his phone was found under a cabinet.
The 25-year-old appeared in the Hamilton District Court last month where he vacated his not-guilty plea, and admitted a charge of 鈥渃ausing a significant disruption to the activities of the civilian population of New Zealand by threatening to kill school children, an act likely to create a risk to the health of children鈥.
The charge carries a maximum penalty of seven years鈥 imprisonment.
At the hearing, Judge Philip Crayton convicted the car detailer on the charge but delayed the release of court documents relating to his case for two weeks.
九一星空无限 can now reveal Javed had made several phone calls to the police and the Parliament House in the early hours of that morning.
However, the contents of a phone call made at 7.15am, in which he references the Christchurch mosque attacker, is what has led to his criminal conviction.
Javed told Parliament House security staff he planned, from that day, to go to schools and kill children because people were 鈥渇***ing taking advantage of my family and kids, bro鈥.
鈥淚t鈥檚 the community, the community is f***ing people鈥檚 head up with torturing their kids and families, bro,鈥 he told the staff.
鈥淎nd people around the neighbourhood thinks [sic] that鈥檚 very funny our family is going through stress and hardship and all this torture from others.鈥
During Javed鈥檚 tirade, he continued to allude to a perceived personal issue and mentioned needing help.
鈥淭hey think it鈥檚 easy. They didn鈥檛 realise it鈥檚 kids [sic].
鈥淧eople like that creates people, you know?
鈥淣ow I know that Christchurch killer was killing because he had people like s*** people in his life, you know?
鈥淚, I鈥檝e spoke about my kids, my family issue, no one f***ing helps, bro.
Javed believed 鈥渆veryone鈥 was 鈥渓aughing鈥 at his family and threatened that now he was 鈥渇***ing gonna blow.鈥
When questioned by police, Javed denied making the phone call and claimed his phone had been missing for the last few days and he didn鈥檛 know where it was.
Javed first appeared in court in May and remained in custody until October, when he was released on electronically-monitored bail.
He will be sentenced in March.
