Penrith Local Court magistrate Stephen Corry on Thursday decided in favour of five media organisations in lifting a suppression order that had concealed the identities of four of the accused, who are linked to a performing arts school west of Sydney.
A 17-year-old girl, an 18-year-old man and a 20-year-old woman, who were also arrested on Monday after a long investigation, still can't be identified.
The alleged abuse of the three boys - who were aged under eight at the time - reportedly included sadistic sex acts and "blood rituals".
