Further charges laid in Operation Beverly

1 min read

Please attribute to Detective Senior Sergeant Geoff Baber, Auckland City CIB:

Further charges have been filed as part of Operation Beverly, the investigation into alleged historical sexual offending at Dilworth School.

The further charges have been filed against a 72-year-old man who was already before the Court.

The man now faces two additional charges of sexual violation, two charges of indecent assault, and three charges of possession of child exploitation material. 

He is expected to appear in Auckland District Court tomorrow morning.

Investigators working on Operation Beverly over the past two years have spoken with a number of former students who have been identified as being victims of sexual abuse while at the school.    

While we have spoken to more than 150 former students, I still encourage anyone with information that hasn't spoken with the investigation team yet to get in touch.

They can contact Operation Beverly staff on (09) 302 6624 or by emailing Operation.Beverly@police.govt.nz.
