Now, following the completion of a police investigation, we can show you the true extent of our investigation.
Drinking problems on the Kapiti coast
This weekend a 20-year old man died following an alleged fight in a Kapiti Coast bar.

Fraudster's trail of deceit
It emerged recently that the engineer who oversaw the construction of Christchurch's CTV building may not have been all he claimed to be.

But his deception did not seem to stop there - Close Up meets a Nelson couple who invited him into their lives.
