A FORMER orthopaedic surgeon at Barnsley Hospital has appeared before a tribunal to face complaints from three women about alleged sexual misconduct.
The incidents allegedly took place between 2006 and 2015 at the hospital and involved 54-year-old Dr Muhammad Khan, who is alleged to have groped staff members.
Dr Khan was reported to the General Medical Council following a police investigation and he has been appearing before the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service in Manchester since Monday.
He denies sexually motivated misconduct. The hearing continues.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
