The Brussels Times – More than 70 Jehovah’s Witness sexual abuse victims speak up after Belgian documentary

More than 70 victims of sexual abuse within the Jehovah’s Witnesses have come forward with their stories since the public network aired a documentory about it last week, reports the nonprofit organisation Reclaimed Voices Belgium.

 

The documentary brought to light that the organisation had been covering up sexual abuse of minors via an internal ‘disciplinary’ system for years, concluded Pano. That way, none of the claims were reported to the police. One of the witnesses in the documentary was very straightforward in calling it “a paradise for paedophiles”.
