    A Police probe which screened all young boys at Gloriavale has found at least 60 people involved in harmful sexual behaviour

    A Police probe which screened all young boys at Gloriavale has found at least 60 people involved in harmful sexual behaviour


    Operation Minneapolis was launched last year, in partnership with Oranga Tamariki, after concerns were raised about the Christian community.

    A former Gloriavale member, aged 21, has today been discharged without conviction, after pleading guilty to three charges of indecent assault.

    A police statement of facts says one phase of the operation screened all young boys aged between seven and 16.

    That probe concluded in excess of 60 people had been involved in harmful sexual behaviour as either as children, young people or adults.
