“Truth on Trial” released

Truth on Trial, a full forensic examination and analysis of the Christchurch Mosque Attack ‘live-stream’ video, has been released today by Kelvyn Alp, Pariah Media.

It is important to note that the author of this report, Gareth Jones, has previously worked on projects for NZ Police analysing digital content.

Quoted from intro:

In 2019 I undertook a digital forensic analysis of the Christchurch Mosque shooting video after receiving a link to the video prior to it becoming classified as objectionable. Using my skill-set, I noted a number of discrepancies and made contemporaneous notes which became the basis of a report. I contacted Detective Inspector Chris Cahill, the President of the Police Association and discussed the concerns I had with the video. I urged him to make contact with the officers involved with the shooting inquiry to urge them not to use that video as evidence in any upcoming court case as it was likely fake and may jeopardise the case. I passed a copy of my report on to DI Cahill at the time. I had no further contact after that.

In about July 2025, I was contacted by one of the clients, Kelvyn Alp, both of whom have been charged by police with possession of objectionable material (the Mosque shooting video) and he sought expert opinion on the veracity of the video in order to challenge the objectionable status in court in an attempt to have the order overturned.

In August 2025, I conducted an analysis of the video outside New Zealand in a country where this video is not deemed objectionable.

I have used my 5 years military experience and 14 years as a Digital Forensic Analyst as a basis for reviewing the authenticity of the video and reporting on my findings. The findings will show compelling evidence that the video is not genuine.

For the avoidance of doubt, this report is being done under the protections and provisions of the New Zealand Films, Videos, and Publications Classification Act 1993, Section 131 (5)(d) and (6) for the purposes of making representations, in relation to proceedings against the clients by New Zealand Police.
