Nuns used to batter boys stupid during daily abuse at a children's home in Londonderry, one victim has claimed.
John Heaney, 55, was caned on the feet by members of the order of the
Sisters of Nazareth at St Joseph's in Termonbacca and said he suffered
sexual abuse from older boys.
"Nuns were very good at raising their hands. All the Termonbacca boys have a flat spot on the back of their heads because they were battered stupid," he said.
