Lifetime ban for Indian-origin doc in UK

 





The High Court in London has ruled that Indian-origin doctor Varaha Konathala must be permanently struck off the medical register after sexually assaulting a patient. Initially, the Medical Tribunal (MPT) had suspended him for 12 months, but the General Medical Council (GMC) appealed, and the court overturned the decision. Justice Timothy Mould said Dr Konathala’s actions were not “compatible” with remaining a practising doctor.
