The English town of Ealing

Recent reports published by “The Times” have brought to light dozens of cases of abuse committed against children by lay teachers and monks of Ealing Abbey, and in nearby Saint Benedict’s School, there have been accusations of abuse over a long period of time, going back to the ‘60s and 2009.

The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith in Rome has arranged a historic visit, as proof on the extent of the scandal continues to grow. It is the first inquiry of its kind that involves abuse of minors in Great Britain.

Victims claim that the inquiry could be the first step towards the revelation of details regarding the sexual and physical abuse committed by clerics, a scandal which has already hit the Church in the United States and Ireland.
