A prominent businessman has been jailed but continues to vehemently deny indecently assaulting three people and later trying to bribe one of his victims. The other attempt involved entertainer Mika X helping the businessman attempt to derail the court case with a $15,000 bribe. Justice Geoffrey Venning told the businessman: "You had others do your dirty work." "It's about power, power that [the businessman] had that I did not," he said. Kiwi entertainer Mika X, also known as Mika Haka, was also convicted of helping the businessman attempt to derail the court case.
