Australia Royal Commission probes child abuse allegations

The Royal Commission in Australia has begun a public hearing in the city of Perth to hear the stories of some of the victims of alleged child abuse by priests in orphanages.

The abuse allegedly occurred between 1947 and 1968 against boys, as young as seven, who were sent to Australia as child migrants. Witnesses have been recounting their stories in the hearing about the horrific abuse they were subjected to in the orphanages by the priests.
