The murder trial for Yanfei Bao begins as children in youth facilities continue to rebel against those trying to help them. The NZDF continues to keep a close eye on their ship.
A teacher at a north Auckland primary school is accused of grooming and sexually assaulting a young child and now faces criminal charges before the courts.
The teacher, who held a senior position, was charged by police last month.
“A woman in her 30s has beencharged with indecent assault of a boy under 12 and grooming for sexual conduct with a young person,” police told the Herald.
“An investigation was launched after the matter was reported to police last month. The woman has been remanded on bail and is due to reappear in North Shore District Court on November 15.”
The offending is alleged to have occurred in August and September this year.
If convicted of the charges, the woman faces up to 10 years in jail.
The Herald understands a public meeting was held between the school, the community and police last night. However, parents told the Herald they were frustrated by the lack of available information.
The Teaching Council website notes the teacher embroiled in the allegations has “voluntarily agreed not to teach”.
