A 20-year-old is facing four counts of indecent assault following an investigation into sexual allegations regarding a Young Labour summer camp at Waihi in February.

Allegations of sexual misconduct were brought to light back in March, when Stuff.co.nz reported 'it was alleged a 20-year-old man sexually assaulted four teenagers, all aged 16, including putting his hands down the pants of at least three of them”.

This morning, police released a statement confirming a 20-year-old has been charged and released on bail to appear in court.

"This follows an investigation by Police into allegations relating to a Labour Party summer camp at Waihi," says a police spokesperson.

"The man is due to appear in the Auckland District Court on 5 July."

As this matter is before the court police are unable to make further comment at this time, says police.
