The son of an IRA murder victim has claimed he suffered sexual and physical abuse in care.

Jean McConville was taken from her home in Divis Flats in Belfast in 1972 before being murdered and secretly buried on a beach in County Louth by the IRA.

Her son Billy told the Historical Institutional Abuse Inquiry he was abused by some De La Salle Brothers and physically abused by a lay teacher in Rubane House in County Down.

He spoke to BBC News NI's Kevin Sharkey.
