THE victim of alleged sexual abuse by a Catholic priest in Scotland has spoken of his anger over how the Church handled the case.
The young man described repeated abuse from the age of nine or ten until he was into his early teens, in the 1990s.
He reported his experiences to the Church last year and although the priest was suspended, he has yet to receive any response regarding the investigation.
As he spoke out an academic and author of a report into abuse between 1985 and 1995 described priests being “out of control sexually, whether they be homosexual or heterosexual”.
The victim described several years of abuse at an east of Scotland church.
