Catholic Church in Scotland 'knew of 20 child sex abuse allegations'

A new revelation has emerged regarding abuse case which has been linked to the Catholic Church in Scotland. bbc claimed it has evidence that bishops in the Catholic Church in Scotland knew of 20 allegations of child sex abuse by priests between 1985 and 1995.

Another alleged victim of abuse says his life has been ruined.
An academic who compiled a report for the Church on how to deal with abuse says not enough was done.
The Catholic Church in Scotland insists its child protection procedures have improved dramatically since the 1990s and allegations of abuse now are rare.

 The Roman Catholic Church is no stranger to scandal, but until now Scotland has not been engulfed by allegations of abuse.
