    An Auckland man accused of murdering a 16-month-old is fighting to keep his name secret

    An Auckland man accused of murdering a 16-month-old is fighting to keep his name secret


    The 51-year-old today pleaded not guilty to murdering Malcolm Bell on June 29.

    A trial date has been scheduled for August next year.

    The Herald revealed last month at least two people had contacted Oranga Tamariki with concerns about Malcolm's welfare, before he suffered the suspected abuse-related injuries that led to his death.

    He was one of six children and all his siblings had been taken from his mother and are in foster or whanau care.
