A 40-year-old man has admitted a series of 30 charges including sexual assaults on a girl, injuring a boy, and kidnapping, assaulting and injuring a woman.
Riki Kake had been due to appear at a Christchurch District Court jury trial case review today after earlier indicating not guilty pleas to all the charges.
However, defence counsel Serina Bailey told Judge Tom Gilbert that she now had instructions to enter guilty pleas to all the charges.
She said she had no concerns about mental health issues after discussions with Kake.
