Police say they regularly visit Gloriavale to promote safety

NZ Herald

Police say they regularly visit the isolated West Coast Gloriavale community and any criminal offences will be dealt with.

But they have stopped short on commenting on suggestions their presence has become heightened recently.

Yesterday, the Greymouth Star reported that police had been on site every day for the past week, interviewing at least 33 women in the process and that multiple charges would follow.

However, today police would not comment on whether an investigation was being made, if charges would be pressed, or if specific concerns about Gloriavale had been raised with police.
