Northern Ireland’s children’s commissioner has said the behaviour of some adults in relation to the unrest in the region amounts to child abuse.
Children as young as 12 are said to have taken part in some of the riots during the week, while three male teenagers, all aged 14, were arrested following unrest on Friday night.
