Since 1950, more than 1,000 members of the church were accused of child sex abuse, but never reported to police.
At least 1,000 members of Jehovah’s Witness Church in Australia have been accused of child sex abuse in the last 65 years, with not one case reported to the police, an Australian government inquiry has found.
Claims of sexual abuse were hushed up and internally investigated by church elders, the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sex Abuse heard in Sydney on Monday, during the first day of hearings into the Jehovah's Witnesses.
