Clergymen will appear in court tomorrow

Two Catholic clergymen facing historical sex abuse charges against children will touch down in Christchurch tonight.

On Monday, the High Court in Sydney turned down an application by Brother Rodger Maloney and Father Raymond Garchow to appeal their extradition order.

Their lawyer Greg Walsh has confirmed he will be escorting the men to Sydney this afternoon where they will then be put on a plane to Christchurch this evening.

He says the pair will arrive at around midnight and will appear in the Christchurch District Court tomorrow morning.

Mr Walsh says a bail application will be made. The men are facing charges of committing various sexual offences against young boys between 1971 and 1980 at the former Maryland's School for the intellectually disadvantaged
