A HANDWRITTEN note by former St Paul’s principal Gilbert Case revealed he was aware of allegations pedophile music teacher Gregory Robert Knight had cupped a boy’s genitals.

The document was referred to at the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses into Child Sexual Abuse, while Mr Case was questioned on his actions while in charge of the school at a time when “scores” of boys were abused by two pedophiles over 16 years.

Counsel assisting David Lloyd asked Mr Case about an undated note, written by the principal around the time Knight was allowed to resign, which listed a number of complaints against the teacher.

One of the allegations was that Knight had cupped the penis and testes of a student, known as BRX.
