Detectives investigating historic sex abuse at children's homes in North Wales have arrested a man and woman on suspicion of indecent assault.
Officers attached to Operation Pallial, the investigation into recent allegations of historical abuse in the North Wales care system, arrested the pair at an address in Seaford, East Sussex.
The offences are alleged to have been committed between 1975 and 1976 against an 11-year-old boy.
The suspects, aged 63 and 60, have been taken to a police station in Sussex where they will be interviewed by officers from Operation Pallial.
The latest arrests are the sixth and seventh in the inquiry. One person has been charged.
Detectives are looking into 140 allegations relating to 18 care homes between 1963 and 1992.
The former Bryn Estyn Children's Home has been at the centre of claims A report published in April outlining the first stage of the inquiry revealed the alleged victims were aged between seven and 19.
It said 84 people - 75 male and nine female - had been named by complainants.
Of these, 16 were cited by more than one alleged victim and 10 could now be dead.
In 2000, the Waterhouse Inquiry was established to study claims linked to homes in the former council areas of Gwynedd and Clwyd since 1974.
Following Waterhouse, eight people were prosecuted, seven of whom were convicted.
In July, another damning report which revealed 'extensive' child abuse in North Wales care homes was finally published.
The report claimed police officers and other professionals could have been identified as potential "perpetrators of assaults" 17 years earlier.
