When he returned from work, he examined the pen-like device and discovered that it was a recording device. The couple tried to access the content of the device and were shocked to see non-consensual recordings of the woman while she was changing her clothes

The couple immediately complained to the police station. 

After investigating the matter, the police revealed that the spy camera was placed inside the room by a dental student named Ibrahim. He was also the son of the building owner.

A similar case of a doctor stooping down to performing a lewd act

Just yesterday, a case of an Indian-American Doctor masturbating next to a minor was reported. The doctor allegedly masturbated beside a 14-year-old girl on a plane. He was under trial for three days in Boston Federal Court but was proven not guilty on Wednesday.

As per reports, the 33-year-old, Dr Sudipta Mohanty, is a primary care Physician at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. In May 2022, he was aboard a Hawaiian Airlines flight from Honolulu to Boston with his fiance. 

The 14-year-old girl who alleged that the doctor masturbated on the flight said that he covered himself in a blanket to the neck. She also said that she saw his legs bouncing up and down. This disgusted her so much that she moved to an empty seat nearby. As soon as she landed in Boston, she told everything about the lewd act to her grandparents. Her grandparents then filed a Police complaint. 

What did the doctor claim?

The doctor on the other hand tried to prove himself not guilty. He said that he was flying with his fiance who was sitting next to him. "My fiance was sitting next to me on that flight, and neither of us can understand why this happened to us," he said in a written statement.

He further added, "I have dedicated my life to caring for others as a physician, and it has been heartbreaking to step away while I dealt with these false accusations." 

Does education mean nothing?

Despite being one of the most educated people in society, why do we repeatedly hear cases of doctors abusing women? Doctors are considered next to God as they are life savers. But what to do when these lifesavers are in fact masked sexual predators? If education cannot erase sexism from the minds of people, then what will?
