Last week, Paudie McGahon revealed his story to BBC Spotlight concerning his alleged rape in the early 1990s and the kangaroo court he claims he was subjected to in 2002.
Speaking to Lunchtime after the documentary, Mairia Cahill stated that there could be at the very least 60 cases of abuse that may exist as she knew of about 30 or 40 names that were given to An Garda Siochana.
Ms Cahill has reported that more victims of abuse have come forward to her since she revealed her story to Spotlight at the end of last year.
This morning, she tweeted to say that another victim had contacted her last night and made a complaint to the Gardaí.
Another victim contacted me last night, and a complaint will be made to police. Getting help now. Coverage is working.

Ms Cahill spoke to Lunchtime about the case and the latest on the allegations.
"I think the coverage is extremely important because it does bring other people forward. Late last night, I spoke to someone else who had previously been to police and now more information has come to light and they wish to make another statement.
"I've spent this morning passing on details to the Gardaí and the PSNI.
"I don't really want to go into the detail, Jonathan, and it is something that I'm always careful about... I can tell you the victim is male and the alleged abuser is in the South."
Ms Cahill said she believed that the alleged abuser in this particular case was a Republican but didn't want to release too many details in relation to the case.
She also stated: "If the information can come to me on that scale, with around over 35 names and Gerry Adams can come up with 9, I think people will know themselves... surely Sinn Féin can come up with many more."
She finished by saying: "The most important thing is child protection and as I have stated repeatedly, there are children who are potentially at risk, who will be at risk.
"I don't want to think about a child potentially being abused tonight or next week or in a month's time and as we speak even because Sinn Féin haven't done the right thing."
