Alleged abuse victims say missing records have blocked prosecution

Alleged abuse victims say missing records have blocked prosecution

Two women say a staff member sexually abused them when they were 10 at a British military school in Germany.

They say he threatened them into silence, and the alleged abuse has affected them for decades.

Police have been unable to prove whether his job was covered by British law because key employment records are missing.

The case shows how gaps in official records can make it harder for people to seek justice.
