A VICTIM has told the Royal Commission that he lost his Yeshivah scholarship and was effectively kicked out of the school when he told Rabbi Avrohom Glick (pictured) that he was sexually abused by David Cyprys.
The victim, who is not from Melbourne and is known as AVR to protect his identity, was raped by Cyprys five times in the early 1990s.
He said that he didn’t reveal his abuse to his mother because she had leukaemia at the time he was very unwell.
“I was embarrassed.
“My mum was sick and alone and interstate.
“I was worried about her.”
But when he was struggling to cope one day a friend found him crying in the playground.
