Details of body in boot death kept secret

The method used to kill a man whose body was found in the boot of his car is likely to stay secret until the case goes to trial.

Nicholas Odysseus Devliotis, 32, was found dead in his MR2 sports car at the Lynfield shopping centre carpark on Friday night.

Police said autopsy results should be available this week, but it was unlikely they would be made public as the case was before the court.

A 24-year-old woman and a 23-year-old man, both from Orewa, and a 14-year-old Auckland girl have been charged with murder and will appear in the North Shore District Court tomorrow.
