A 17-year-old woman took part in a 45-minute group sex session on the verandah of the Occidental Hotel in central Christchurch, a court has been told.

The Friday afternoon sex on October 12 took place in full view of Hereford Street and the surrounding office blocks.

Lorna Catherine Harrow-Hodginson pleaded guilty to charges of doing an indecent act, possession of cannabis resin, possession of utensils for taking drugs, and theft when she appeared before Judge Jane Farish in the Christchurch District Court.

She was crying in court after the judge refused to lift her bail condition that forbids her from going to Latimer Square.

The judge remanded Harrow-Hodginson for a probation report on December 17 when a supervision sentence may be considered.
