Pakistani doctor suspended for assaulting student nurse

In November last year, a Pakistani doctor in the UK assaulted a student nurse and asked her to have an affair with him. The doctor, who was not fired, blamed ‘cultural norms’ for his behavior.

The student nurse was left ‘shaken up and distraught’ and informed a tribunal that the attack had left her unable to focus on her studies or trust male co-workers.

The father of two was compelled to sign the Sex Offender Register for five years due to his attack.
