Iain Wares, an 86-year-old former teacher accused of historical sex abuse in Scotland, has been arrested in Cape Town, South Africa, on an additional 90 charges. Wares, who taught at Edinburgh Academy and Fettes College in the 1960s and 70s, is alleged to have abused scores of former pupils, including BBC presenter Nicky Campbell. Last August, the Cape Town High Court ruled that Wares could be extradited to Scotland to face three charges, but the process was delayed as UK authorities sought to submit further charges. The new charges stem from allegations by 65 individuals who claim they were sexually and physically abused by Wares in Scotland. Victims have accused the schools of failing to report complaints, allowing Wares to relocate to South Africa in 1979, where he continued teaching until his retirement in 2006. Wares was initially arrested in May 2019 on seven charges, and he also faces a separate trial in Cape Town following allegations by a former South African student. He has been granted bail, with a hearing scheduled for November 20. Barry Welsh, the current rector of Edinburgh Academy, emphasized the school’s commitment to addressing past wrongs and supporting former pupils. The case remains under the jurisdiction of legal authorities in both South Africa and Scotland.
