    Four West Coast men have appeared in court charged with a raft of sex offending against children

    Four West Coast men have appeared in court charged with a raft of sex offending against children


    Judge David Ruth suppressed all details that would identify the men, as well as much of what was said in today's hearing in the Greymouth District Court.

    One man is facing 38 charges relating to sexual offending and a second is facing 14 charges.

    A third is facing seven charges and the fourth is accused of five counts of sexual offending including one representative charge.

    The men will be back in court in August.
