François Bayrou's daughter, Hélène Perlant, has alleged she was physically abused at the Notre-Dame de Bétharram Catholic school, which is embroiled in a scandal involving numerous former pupils claiming abuse from 1957 to 2004. Perlant described a traumatic incident involving a priest during a summer camp. She revealed her silence for 30 years may have been to protect her father from political fallout. Bayrou denies knowledge of the abuse allegations and plans to take legal action against claims suggesting otherwise. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
