Two Catholic clergy extradited from Australia granted bail in Chch court

Two Catholic clergymen extradited from Australia to face child sex charges, have been granted bail in the Christchurch District Court this morning.

71-year old Rodger William Moloney faces 28-charges while 58-year old Raymond John Garchow faces four charges of sexually abusing boys at Marylands school in Christchurch in the 1970s.

The two men arrived from Sydney late last night after losing their three-year fight against extradition.

Their lawyer Chris McVeigh, applied for bail on certain conditions, but will not say what those conditions are.

The Crown also applied for an order prohibiting any further publication of pictures of the two men.

Judge Patrick Mahony granted the order until further notice and remanded the two men on bail to reappear in two weeks.
