A 19-year-old man has appeared in the Auckland District Court today charged with��murdering Maxwel-Dee Repia��in Grey Lynn on Thursday evening, and will keep his name secret for now against the wishes of police.

The teenager, listed in court documents as living in Grey Lynn, is also charged with wounding three other men with intent to cause grievous bodily harm on Thursday, the same day police allege he murdered Repia in Tuarangi Rd.

It emerged in court that police are yet to find the getaway car or the firearm allegedly used to kill Repia and wound several others.

Meanwhile, another man, aged 18 and from Te Atatū, will appear in the same court charged with being an accessory-after-the-fact by driving the murder-accused away from the crime scene and helping him avoid arrest, court documents show.��

The 19-year-old, with a shaved head and wearing a grey tracksuit, appeared from custody in the dock before Judge Kirsten Lummis late on Monday morning. A large contingent of the accused’s family packed into the court to watch proceedings.

Also in court were a number of family members of Repia. Judge Lummis offered them her condolences.

His lawyer Libby Brown sought interim name suppression for her murder-accused client, citing extreme hardship, until the next hearing in the Auckland High Court.

“Counsel has concerns about his psychological state and his safety,” Brown said.

His lawyers had engaged a psychologist as a result of those concerns, she said.

Police prosecutor Sergeant Hannah Marshall opposed interim suppression, saying the release of his name would help their ongoing investigation.

• Watch: Grey Lynn shooting was result of 'neighbourhood dispute' police say
• Police urge neighbours of Grey Lynn shooting location to do the 'right thing'

“The release of the defendant’s name would assist greatly with those inquiries,” Marshall said.

Brown argued those inquiries can be made without the release of her client’s name. Judge Lummis noted police had yet to find the car and gun allegedly used in the killing.

“At the moment there’s an outstanding firearm and an outstanding car linked to your defendant,” Judge Lummis said.

Judge Lummis remanded the accused in custody without plea to a hearing on September 25 at 9am in the Auckland High Court.

The judge allowed the name suppression application, but only for seven days, saying it would expire midday on Monday, September 16, unless lawyers can convince her ongoing suppression is needed.

Both teenagers were arrested on Saturday afternoon following a massive manhunt.��

Detective Inspector Glenn Baldwin said this weekend that police won’t rule out further charges.��

“Our investigation is very much ongoing and is still in the early stages,” Baldwin said.��

“There is still much to do as we piece together a full account of what occurred on Thursday and the events leading up to this tragedy.��

“The community has responded very positively and we are grateful for their support.”��

Baldwin said police will continue to work in the community, going door to door seeking witnesses and CCTV footage.��

“Please, if you have information, contact us, rather than waiting for us to find you.��

“We know there are others involved in the offending on Thursday. The right thing for them to do is contact police and talk with us.��

“However, we know having made arrests and laying a murder charge will be a relief for Mr Repia’s family and the wider community.��

“We want to thank residents for their ongoing patience, co-operation and assistance.”��
