A 71-year-old man facing historical sexual abuse charges, linked to Auckland’s Dilworth School, has lost his name suppression.

Graeme Lindsay is one of nine men charged in connection to the boys’ boarding school as a result of the police investigation, Operation Beverley.

The Levin man, who was a Scout leader and tutor at Dilworth, faces three counts of indecently assaulting boys under 13, alleged to have taken place between 1973 and 1975.

He is set to go to trial alongside five others in April next year.
