The chief executive of Scottish Women's Aid has slammed the General Teaching Council for Scotland after it allowed a Lanarkshire teacher who admitted abusing three women back in the classroom.
Bosses at the country's leading domestic abuse organisation deemed the decision not to strike off Charles Tighe as "beyond understanding."
They also called for the GTCS - who instead imposed conditions on Tighe's registration for the next two years - to reconsider their decision, asking if the primary school teacher could be "trusted".
