Testimony that Dewar took part in group sex with Shipton

       John Dewar

 

Evidence has been given at the trial of former Detective Inspector John Dewar that he had group sex in the company of another officer he claimed later he knew only from work.

Dewar is on trial at the High Court in Hamilton charged with obstructing or defeating the course of justice between 1993 and 1995 over his investigation of historic sex allegations against police.

The Crown alleges Dewar suppressed allegations by Louise Nicholas made against three men including former policeman Brad Shipton.

A woman gave evidence yesterday of having group sex with Shipton and a man he introduced as his friend Dewar, saying she came forward after seeing a 2004 TV interview where Dewar said he had no close personal relationship with Shipton.
