One-nation candidate, Henselin (Paul Henselin), was revealed to share false news on social media, claiming not only that the fires at the Virgin Mary House in Paris were related to the terrorism, but also that Labour would promulgate Islam Shariah if elected.
A national party candidate for the (Fairfax) seat in Fafas, Kunn, reportedly posted an edited photo of fake news on Wednesday through his campaign's official social media account.
The picture reads: "three days ago, a Muslim woman was arrested in Paris on suspicion of carrying out a terrorism attack at the Virgin Mary complex in Paris. Three days later, the Virgin Mary complex in Paris caught fire today. And this week coincides with holy week, (Holy Week), Western civilization is burning in front of us. "
"the country had better wake up quickly, stop letting it go, and see that anyone who doesn't believe in Western ideology is a pagan," Hunselin added.
However, the cause of last week's fire at the Virgin Mary compound in Paris is unclear, and France's authorities has never claimed that the fire at the Virgin Mary compound in Paris was caused by terrorism elements or by man-made arson. Investigators say all signs suggest it was an accident.
To mislead fb users and increase credibility, Hunselin uploaded the text on the picture with the title of a real news article from Irish news site TheJournal.ie on April 12.
The report said that "France has detained a female 'jihadist' (22 years old) suspected of carrying out a terrorist attack in Paris in 2016" who was charged with plotting to launch a car bomb attack near the Virgin Mary compound in Paris three years ago. He will appear in court on September 23.
This is the first time the 52-year-old party candidate has posted controversial content on fb. Hunselin posted pictures of Ali (Anne Aly), a Muslim MP from Labour, with the caption that the party intended to "secretly apply the Islam Shariah." The man also posted several posts attacking Labour Senator (Penny Wong), Wong Ying-hsien, one of whom said "Labour Senator homosexual love Huang Ying-hsien supports Islam immigration."
The party's candidate refused to answer journalist's questions, nor did he respond to journalist calls and emails.
