Four men have denied any wrongdoing after a police probe into alleged sexual assault and drugging at an inner-city bar in Christchurch.
The men - aged 25, 33, 34 and 36 - will keep their identities secret, having been granted continued name suppression.
They all entered not guilty pleas when they appeared in the Christchurch District Court on Thursday.
