Abuse report fails to support claims

An independent report into abuse allegations at the Waiouru Army Cadet school has found nothing to support claims of a culture of violence.

It has found that while bullying took place at the school from 1948 to 1991, most of it involved a few, mainly senior, cadets bullying a small number of their colleagues.

The review also looked into the death of Cadet Grant Bain who was shot dead at the school barracks in 1981.
