According to them, their father led a group of approximately 175 parents, teachers and religious leaders whose demonic abuse centered on their school and the adjacent church in HampsteadNorth London.

Scotland Yard became involved after videos of the children’s testimonies were sent to them.

However, the police found no evidence of this scandalous accusations and the children withdrew their claims and told a different story instead.
