BROADCASTER Nicky Campbell has told an inquiry of sexual abuse he endured at Edinburgh Academy as he compared a teacher to Jimmy Savile.
Permission was given by the inquiry’s chair earlier this year to identify Wares, 83, who was previously a “protected person” and was referred to by a pseudonym. On one occasion, aged 14 or 15 years old, Mr Campbell claimed he was attacked by a teacher, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, so violently that a friend who witnessed it thought he was being mugged by a stranger.
Campbell spoke with contempt about the Crown and Procurator Fiscal Office which, in 2019, ruled it was “not in the public interest” to extradite Wares, now in his 80s, from South Africa, on the grounds of age.“Savile’s opportunities were one-to-one. Iain Ware’s was one-to-20 boys.”
