A Royal Commission of Inquiry in Australia has been told of further accusations emerging about a leading churchman in New Zealand sexually assaulting multiple boys.
The late Frank Houston founded the Assemblies of God church in Lower Hutt, before setting up another church in Sydney which later became the high-profile evangelical congregation Hillsong.
His son, Brian Houston, sacked his father in 2000 when he admitted abusing a boy in New Zealand.
The ABC's Emily Bourke said the Royal Commission had been told of more abuse by Mr Houston.
