A 25-year-old man appeared in the Dunedin District Court today facing a murder charge after the death of another man in North Dunedin.

Police were called to a property on Great King Street on Friday afternoon, where they found a 36-year-old man dead. Authorities confirmed that the two men were known to each other, although the nature of their relationship has not been publicly disclosed.
In a statement, police said, “The 25-year-old accused is due in Dunedin District Court today.” The investigation into the circumstances of the death is ongoing.
