    Four women have pleaded not guilty to murder, after a Wellington man was shot as he slept in his bed

    Four women have pleaded not guilty to murder, after a Wellington man was shot as he slept in his bed


    Prosecutors claim the 2020 killing was an act of revenge against 33-year-old Rau Tongia, after he'd assaulted one of the women earlier that night.

    Shayde Weston has appeared at the High Court in Wellington this morning, accused of firing the fatal shot.

    The others are accused of other involvement, such as driving Weston to the scene.
