868,000 people are reading in their newspaper TODAY about how Jehovah's Witnesses are accused of silencing victims of child abuse - DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD
The Guardian (UK), Monday, March 26, 2018 - PRINT EDITION, main section, pages 14 and 15

More than 100 people have contacted the Guardian with allegations of child sexual abuse and other mistreatment in Jehovah’s Witness communities across the UK.

Former and current members, including 41 alleged victims of child sexual abuse, described a culture of cover-ups and lies, with senior members of the organisation, known as elders, discouraging victims from coming forward for fear of bringing “reproach on Jehovah” and being exiled from the congregation and their families.

The investigation also heard from 48 people who said they had experienced other forms of abuse including physical violence when they were children, and 35 who witnessed or heard about others who were victims of child grooming and abuse.

The allegations ranged from events decades ago to others that were more recent, and many of those who came forward have now contacted the police.

In response to the OP, a British MP did the following:

Religion is now like football team to some. Players and supporters try to cover the mess of their team.

It's been like that forever.
The Jehovah's witnesses claim that they are the only true religion. I dont know if they still claim that after all these child molestation case started surfacing. Over 1000 cases in Australia alone.

While they may be guilty of cover up don't be guilty of stereotyping.
