What did Andrew Nikolic know … ?
ABC: Defence Abuse Response Taskforce refers first cases of alleged sexual abuse to police
Andrew Nikolic claims in his profile that he has been in the army for over 30 years from recruit to Brigadier.
In my view he must come clean and tell us what he knows about the brutality and sex abuse that’s been attributed to the Defence Force.
His was a long term involvement with the Army.
There have been numerous Inquiries over those years. But now, former Judge Len Roberts-Smith who is leading the Defence Abuse Response Taskforce, is revealing the true story.
For Mr Nikolic not to know what was happening under his command as Brigadier, and other high ranking Officials, beggars belief.

This latest saga makes the Church sex scandal look like a choir boys’ party.
