Seven G4S young offenders staff suspended over abuse claims

Seven staff members at a young offenders institution in Kent have been suspended over abuse allegations.

The staff were working at the Medway Secure Training Centre in Rochester, managed by security firm G4S.

Paul Cook of G4S said he was "shocked and appalled" and was supporting a police investigation.

The allegations, made following a BBC Panorama undercover investigation, involve unnecessary force, foul language and a cover-up.
