New claims of abuse at Fort Augustus Abbey School

SCOTLAND
BBC News

BBC Scotland has been contacted by more than a dozen former pupils of Fort Augustus Abbey School with fresh allegations of abuse.

Their calls were prompted by the programme BBC Scotland Investigates: Sins of Our Fathers, which was broadcast on Monday.

It contained testimony from former pupils, speaking openly, and for the first time, about life with the monks.

The BBC is attempting to check the new allegations.

They concerned a further three monks associated with the school, who were not featured in Monday’s programme.

Two of them are still alive.
