Scripture Union Scotland (SUS) has said it will offer ‘full assistance’ to Police Scotland after BBC presenter Nicky Campbell said he was assaulted by an SUS member.

The 61-year-old broadcaster claimed: ‘I was badly beaten up at the Edinburgh Academy by a teacher who was a leading light in the Scripture Union.’

He added: ‘My mother took it as far as she could and got a grovelling apology from [the man involved], but was essentially stonewalled and it was hushed up by the school. Those were different times and that has stayed with me all my life.’
