A nun who was brought up in care homes run by Catholic nuns has said the sisters in charge are lying if they deny abuse took place there.
The witness, known as Sister Louise, lived at Bellview children’s refuge in Rutherglen and Smyllum Park orphanage in Lanark.
She has been giving evidence to the second phase of the Scottish Child Abuse Inquiry being held in Edinburgh.
She said her abiding memory of her time spent in the homes was fear.
The homes were run by the Daughters of Charity of St Vincent de Paul.
