A rich-lister s manager has been sentenced after helping the prominent businessman try to dissolve an indecent assault allegation in an elaborate, outrageous and cynical plan . The man, who continues to have interim name suppression, appeared today in the High Court at Auckland after being found guilty of attempting to dissuade a complainant with bribes of future work opportunities from giving evidence.
