[Rebekah Vardy has alleged she was sexually abused as a child by an individual in the Jehovah's Witness community. Speaking as part of a new Channel 4 documentary, Mrs Vardy said she was abused between the ages of 11 and 15. She claimed the alleged abuse was covered up by "elders", senior male leaders within the religious group. In a statement, Jehovah's Witnesses said they "lacked the information to comment on individual cases". Jehovah's Witnesses are a Christian-based religious movement with around 8.5 million followers worldwide and which believes the destruction of the world is imminent. Mrs Vardy, who grew up as a Jehovah's Witness, says she hopes by speaking about her experiences that she will be able to show others there is a "light at the end of the tunnel".] Sign Of The Times. |
