Former All Black Stephen Bachop is denying he assaulted his partner after New Zealand's Rugby World Cup win in October. Bachop, 45, of Whitby, was arrested on October 24 and faces five charges including assault on a female, assault and resisting police.
He has previously pleaded not guilty and yesterday Wellington District Court judge Susan Thomas adjourned the case to February 14 when a date for a day-long hearing will be fixed.
