Gardaí renew appeal for historical abuse victims

Gardaí have renewed their appeal to anyone wishing to report crimes related to historical sexual abuse in schools run by religious orders to contact them.

More than 500 complaints regarding abuse at schools have been made since the publication of a scoping report into historical sexual abuse.

According to the Gardaí, the majority of complaints are from older men who are sharing their experiences with them for the first time.
