An Australian man identified as Chad Rolf Vinzelberg who was arrested after posting comments on social media in support of the Christchurch mosque shooting has reportedly been granted bail on the condition that he stays off the internet.

Vinzelberg, 37, was reportedly charged with one count of aggravated possession of a firearm without a license and four counts of using or possessing a prohibited weapon. Reports state that Vinzelberg hung his head and wept as he faced Elizabeth Magistrates Court on Monday.
