A child safety campaigner is seeking an urgent meeting with Police Scotland Chief Constable Sir Stephen House as part of an inquiry into allegations of sex abuse at a Moray monastery.
Andi Lavery claims he was treated dismby a call handler when he attempted to report the accusations of two men who claim they were assaulted at Pluscarden Abbey.
Police last night insisted they would “listen and investigate” whenever allegations of child abuse were brought to their attention.
However, Mr Lavery, who heads the White Flowers Alba support group, said the response he received could deter others from reporting abuse.
