Accused Christchurch mosque shooter Brenton Tarrant has filed a formal complaint claiming he is being denied his basic rights behind bars.
Australian-born Tarrant, 28, has been jailed at Auckland Prison in Paremoremo since he was charged with murder for allegedly gunning down 50 Muslim worshippers at two mosques on March 15.
Tarrant has reportedly lodged a complaint with the Department of Corrections to contest his situation in prison where he currently is not permitted visitors, phone calls, or access to television or newspapers, Stuff reported.

'He's under constant observation and isolation. He doesn't get the usual minimum entitlements. So no phone calls and no visits,' a prison source told the publication.
The suspected gunman was charged with one count of murder on March 16 but is expected to face additional charges when he appears in court again on April 5.
