Police have arrested seven care workers on suspicion of abuse after a victim of the Winterbourne View scandal was allegedly abused again.
A probe by the police, NHS and the Care Quality Commission has uncovered what is alleged to be a ?punishment room? at Veilstone Care Home in which vulnerable residents were allegedly locked inside overnight.
The unheated room contained only a blow-up mattress, a single light bulb and a CCTV camera. Its door was locked from the outside, and alleged victims had no way of getting out unless staff released them.
