An investigation is underway into a retired Australian priest who is alleged to have sexually abused a student at a Scottish Catholic boarding school.
Father Denis Alexander has been identified in a BBC documentary as one of two Australian monks who allegedly abused pupils at Fort Augustus Abbey School in the Highlands.
The Catholic Church in Australia has confirmed a police investigation into the former priest, who is now living in Sydney, is underway.
