SANO Taskforce detectives arrested an 87-year-old Sale man on Thursday following an investigation into historical sexual assault allegations at St Patrick’s College in Sale.
The man was interviewed and released pending further enquiries.
Investigators have received what they say are a number of complaints from former male students who attended the Catholic school during the 1970s and 1980s, when St Patrick’s operated as a boarding school.
The male students were aged between 11 and 15 at the time of the alleged incidents.
Detectives would like to speak to victims or witnesses who have information relating to sexual abuse at the college during the 1970s and 1980s.
