A former pupil at a Catholic boarding school has told how he was raped by a monk who he suspects to be his father.
The witness, who cannot be named for legal reasons, had a statement about his time at St Columba’s in Largs, North Ayrshire, read to the Scottish Child Abuse Inquiry on Thursday.
The man, now in his 50s, claims to have suffered a serious sexual assault at the hands of a monk before enrolling at the school.
