Woman Accuses Doctor of Sexual Assault, but Police Dismiss Report, Citing Mental Health Concerns

7

REAL NEWS –  A medical practitioner has been accused of committing a sexual offence against a female patient, a source tells REAL News.

Reportedly, the 32-year-old victim has accused the doctor of indecent assault. This offence allegedly occurred almost three weeks ago; however, it is alleged that, to date, the physician has not been taken to a police station for questioning.

The offence reportedly occurred on July 27 at the office of the known doctor, and the woman made a report to the Criminal Investigations Department (CID).

The source says that officers interviewed the alleged victim and took a statement from her. But while inquiries into the incident reportedly are being made, there is no official record of the report in the police diary, the source claims.

Another source tells our Newsroom that the Police have reasons to believe the report is false, since the victim seems not to be of sound mind.

However, eyebrows are being raised, as persons ask how the Police can determine the woman’s mental-health status without her first being examined by a professional. One resident says the officers should just conduct their investigations in a fair manner and get the woman the help she needs –instead of saying she is lying.

And according to a women’s rights advocate, the Police’s response “is exactly why people with mental-health issues are abused: because their abusers know that they won’t be believed.” Meanwhile, the Police recently investigated another indecent assault that allegedly occurred several hours after.

Reports say that a Browne’s Avenue woman complained to the CID that her neighbour had come to her residence and removed his clothes, exposing himself in front of her.

This offence reportedly occurred at about 4 in the morning.

After receiving certain information from the victim, the Police interviewed the alleged offender, who denied the accusation – but admitted to having been at the woman’s house.

Yet another sexual offence of serious indecency was reported to the Police that same day.

Reports say that an adult male took a minor to the Special Victims Unit (SVU) and reported that she had been sexually assaulted by an unknown person.

This offence reportedly occurred on July 22 and investigations are ongoing.

  1. How can the patient be called a victim ( in line 3 of the story) has newsroom already tried the case and found the doctor quilty?

  2. In the mean time scores of women exposed themselves to me on Market Street. The police was also on location when the incidence of exposure took place. I am still traumatized from the incidence and is seeking the help of law enforcement.

    HELP can nurse Wung please help me? I have evidence it’s on YouTube, and ABS showed it during the news and many broadcasters commended about it.

    WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SERIOUS INDECENCY LAW DURING CARNIVAL? WHY THE POLICE DID NOT PROTECT ME?
    NURSE WONG DID NOT LIFT A VOICE TO CONDEMN THE ACTS EITHER.

  3. This doctor’s name would have been listed in this news story, if he was Asot Michael

  4. They are alot of people witk mental health issues because of an increase in drug usage. To be on the safe side always have a witness with you. The doctor should had a nursing assistant with him.

  5. Regardless of the state of the women’s mental health an investigation should have been carried out. It is for this very reason that so many mentally ill individuals are molested; who is going to believe them? Certainly not the police. Certainly not their families. It is also for this reason that so many mentally ill individuals do not report these incidents…who would believe them? Certainly not us…
