Survivors drugged and sexually assaulted at Christchurch's Mama Hooch Bar will confront their attackers at sentencing in August.
Brothers Danny and Roberto Jaz can now be named publicly as the rapists, with almost 70 convictions between them.
A High Court judge today lifted name suppression orders in place since 2018.
The Herald's Anna Leask says more than 20 survivors gave evidence which led to the convictions.
"They will be giving victim impact statements, many of them to the court. They'll be facing their attackers for the first time, some of them will do it from behind screens, but the judge is wanting to give them a lot of time to have their say."
