Moves are under way to extradite a retired priest from Canada to Scotland in connection with child abuse claims.
The Crown Office has been granted a petition warrant for the arrest of Father Robert MacKenzie, who lives in Cupar, Saskatchewan.
Fr MacKenzie, 84, taught at the former Fort Augustus Abbey School before moving to Canada in 1988.
