A man who allegedly stabbed a woman to death at a south Auckland home they shared has pleaded not guilty.
The 38-year-old appeared in the High Court at Auckland this morning facing a charge of murder after the April 19 incident.
His name was suppressed at his first appearance and Justice Graham Lang continued that order until his next appearance.
The 48-year-old victim lived at the address with the defendant and police confirmed at the time there were a number of people at the house when she was allegedly stabbed.
Officers arrived at the home to find a woman bleeding heavily as a result of injuries received from "a sharp instrument", and commenced CPR.
