By Jean Edwards | RNZ |

Another Gloriavale man jailed for child sex offences can now be named, after losing a High Court fight to keep his identity a secret.

Timothy Disciple, 41, was sentenced in the Greymouth District Court in June to two years and five months in prison, but had his jail term reduced on appeal to 21 months following a High Court hearing in Christchurch in September.

He pleaded guilty to seven charges, including indecent assault of a child under the age of 12.
