    A Dunedin rapist, who fatally punched a fellow inmate has been denied parole

    A Dunedin rapist, who fatally punched a fellow inmate has been denied parole


    The Otago Daily Times reports Nyal Heke was jailed for a decade after a jury at the Dunedin District Court found him guilty on two counts of rape.

    Heke was assessed as having a high risk of violent reoffending and an above average risk of further sex offending.

    He will remain behind bars until at least May 2024.
