[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".]
