A 21-year-old man who admitted assaulting two young men at a Young Labour summer camp has been discharged without conviction. 

The young man was originally charged with five counts of indecent assault against four complainants, which he denied. 

However, during his trial in September, the Crown withdrew the indecent assault charges, amending them to assault, withdrew a third charge and offered no evidence on the remaining two charges.

He died at Auckland City Hospital two days later.

Fallout from the Labour Party summer camp case continues as the lawyers involved in the trial are at odds over the details.

The prosecutor in the Labour Party summer camp trial says the Crown does not accept there was no sexual offending, despite taking a downgraded plea deal to resolve the case.

The partner at the law firm Meredith Connell, which holds the prosecution warrant for Auckland, added "the correct position" was that the Crown "did not consider it necessary in the public interest for the jury to resolve the point".

He said the defendant's plea offer came during the evidence of the second male complainant.

"It necessarily involved the defendant recognising that the touching of the two males did happen largely in the way the Crown alleged, but disputing that the defendant knew either that touching was indecent or of the circumstances that made it indecent," Johnstone said.

"And it necessarily involved the Crown accepting that if guilty pleas were entered to assaults on the two males, there was insufficient public interest in continuing the prosecution. No more than that."

The first New Zealander jailed for possessing and distributing extremist propaganda will be released on parole as he is no longer deemed a risk to public safety.

The court heard that he disseminated the videos through text to 52 people and when police raided his home he was found with material showing extreme violence and torture.
