Amnesty chief Colm O’Gorman has called for a full independent inquiry with powers of discovery into the Spiritan sex abuse scandal.
The call came after the former Archbishop of Dublin Diarmuid Martin called for a similar investigation who described the abuse at Blackrock College as “frightening”.
Mr O’Gorman said that he was barely able to sit through the recent RTE documentary which exposed the scandal at the fee-paying colleges run by the Spiritans.
