Abuse inquiry told nun forced young girl to perform sex act

The Historical Institutional Abuse inquiry has heard claims that a child was forced to perform oral sex on a nun.
A witness, who was a resident at Nazareth House in Derry’s Bishop Street during the 1960s, said she was between the ages of four and five when she was made to lie on her back on the floor by a nun who straddled her, lifting her habit and forcing the child to perform a sex act on her. She said she was terrified.
