	Stuff August 15 2006 Rape accused league star fights for name suppression NZPA A former rugby league test player was back in court today trying to keep his name secret until sex charges against him have been decided. The man faced three charges of sexually violating a woman when he appeared in Auckland District Court last week. He entered no plea and the case was adjourned for a hearing to decide whether the interim name suppression he was granted should be allowed to continue. The man was investigated after a woman reportedly complained to police she might have been drug raped.
