A
horny and randy medical doctor has brutally r*ped a married woman right
in the hospital after she came for fertility examination in a bid to
get pregnant.
A
woman who was desperately in need to have a baby after many years of
marriage has fallen into the wrong hands of a medical doctor who
deceived her and r*ped her in the hospital. This is how the story
happened as shared by Daily Sun:
The
Police in Lagos have begun investigation into an alleged case of rape
against the Medical Director of a fertility clinic, Sayemi
Naturescience Centre, Daily Sun reports. The suspect (names withheld)
was alleged to have had carnal knowledge of one of his patients on
Saturday April 9, 2016 at one of his centers in Ikeja area of Lagos
State.
His
accuser, one Mrs Funke (other names withheld) made the allegation in
her statement at the police station few days after the encounter,
hoping that she would get justice. She alleged that the Doctor used a
medical instrument called transducer which is usually inserted inside
the vagina and moved around slightly while ultrasound images are shown
on screen. According to her, she was convinced that the method would
allow the doctor have a good view of her womb to ascertain if anything
was wrong.
The
instrument which has the shape of the joystick, she alleged , was
inserted into her vagina but she never knew when the doctor withdrew
the instrument and inserted his own joystick inside her untill he was
about to Erupt. Although this might sound like a fairy tale, the victim
insisted she never consented to the act.
Battling to control her tears, Mrs. Funke said that it was her quest to conceive that landed her in trouble. In her words, “I
have a 24 year old son and ever since, all efforts to get pregnant had
failed. I have visited different hospitals and prayed endlessly for God
to remember me. Luckily, I have an understanding husband who stood by
me all these years.
“I
knew that I had to do anything possible to ensure that there are
children in the house. This was how I picked interest in any programme
that talks about fertility. Early in the month, I watched a health
programme organized by the Doctor who is the founder of Sayemi
Naturalscience Centre, Ikeja.
“During
the programme, he explained that he had a natural way through which he
could heal infertility. I was impressed and I decided to visit his
clinic when he explained that my problem could be solved through
dieting.
“Last
Saturday, with the consent of my husband, I decided to pay him a visit.
I bought their clinic card for N2000 and waited for my turn. When I
finally saw the doctor, I narrated my medical history and all the
efforts that I had made to conceive. He assured me that his clinic would
be my last bus stop but he would need to access my body through vaginal
scan.
“I
knew what vaginal scan meant. Immediately, I stretched my body on the
table for examination. Normally, you were expected to lie down and
spread your legs widely apart. I trusted the doctor, so I never queried
his method.
“He
applied cream on my vagina and inserted the instrument used by doctors
for normal vaginal scan. The only odd thing he did was to touch my
femalecore and I tried to resist and he told me to calm down that this
was a perfect process of inducing my hormones so that he could access
my body well.
“At that point, I relaxed very well, closed my eyes and spread my legs because my focus was to get solution.
“At
a point, he removed the equipment and inserted it again but this time,
it was much bigger. I believed that it was as a result of him handling
with my femalecore that made me to get carried away to the point that I
could not tell that the stuff that was bigger inside me was actually his
joystick.
“It
was the noise he made when he was about to Erupt that drew my attention
and I opened my eyes and lo and behold, he was actually having sex with
me instead of the scan.”
Shocked, Mrs. Funke claimed that she quickly wore her pants and asked the doctor why he took advantage of her.
“I
was shocked as well as embarrassed. I was terrified because I could
not understand if this was the process. He quickly removed the condom
and threw into the waste basket and started begging me to forgive him
and allow him to proceed with the treatment. I left his office and
complained to the nurse who was on duty and she said that it is not a
new thing that the man is used to sleeping with most of his patients.
She asked me to forgive him that she would find a way to get the
hospital compensate me so that the matter would be closed”.
When
asked why she did not scream or attack the doctor when she discovered
what happened, Mrs. Funke said that her main concern was to get out of
the place safe. “When
I discovered what he did, I was terrified because I could not
understand why he did that to me. I have heard of how people
mysteriously die and my main concern was to leave his office alive,
that was why I complained bitterly to the nurse. When I got home, I told
my husband what I went through and he asked me to formally report to
the police. Heaven knows that I did not consent to the act. I only had
faith in the doctor that he knew what he was doing”, she claimed.
She
begged the police to assist her to get justice. “I am legally married
and I am blessed with a great husband. That was why I confided in him.
He was the one who encouraged me to be bold enough to report the matter
to the police so that such a crime would not continue.”
When
Saturday Sun called the number on the hospital card as presented by
the woman, the person who answered the call admitted that he was the
Medical Director and queried if his accuser was not conscious or
drugged when the alleged act took place. He thanked the reporter and
assured that he would sort out the problem as soon as possible to avoid
any scandal.
When
the Doctor was called again on his mobile phone number at about 1:27pm
on Thursday to react in details to the allegation, he initially feigned
ignorance but later said he had no comment to make.
Other women recall similar encounters
Just
like Funke, some women who heard her story pleaded with the Police to
use her case as an example for other doctors who are in the habit of
sleeping with their female patients.
One
of such is Mrs. Vivian Agu who said that her gynecologist in a popular
hospital around HRC Enugu fondled her breast when she was eight months
pregnant. “I
started bleeding at eight months of my pregnancy and my doctor sent me
for a scan at the said hospital. When I got there, being my first time,
I obtained a card and was sent to see a doctor before the scan. When I
got to him, he asked my name which I gave to him. The next thing, he
started handling my breast and I was just watching. At a point, he asked
if I was not feeling Hot and I told him that I did not even know that
he was touching my breast. He told me that I was a strong woman as so
many women at that point, used to plead with him to have sex with them. I
asked him why he was doing it and he told me that he needed to access
the fluid that would come out of Tips so he could write his report
before I went for the scan. I did the scan and left. I felt that was the
process untill I became pregnant again, I was sent for another scan
but this time around, I had it at Enugu Scan Centre and when it got to
my turn, the doctor just did the scan he never touched my breast. I
asked him why he did not touch my breast and he told me that it had
nothing to do with the scan. It was then I narrated my experience with
the other doctor and he told me that the doctor was promiscuous.”
Another victim Bola recalled that she went through hell for 17 years waiting for the fruit of the womb. “I
was desperate to get a child and was ready to go to any hospital or
prayer house. One day, my husband’s friend referred me to a doctor and
told me that he would be my last bus stop. I was excited and followed
him. The so-called doctor asked me to bend down and remove my pants,
that he wanted to examine my vagina from behind.
“I
discovered that he was robbing a cream on my femalecore and I kept
quiet because I thought it was the procedure. Meanwhile, I was very
vigilant because in the course of my childlessness, I had never
experienced such. Suddenly, he brought out his joystick and was about
to insert it in my vagina when I shouted. I ran out of the office
screaming. That was the last time and I swore I would never visit any
place that is not a good hospital. And as God would have it, am blessed
with three daughters today.
“Women
go through a lot all in the name of making babies. No sane woman would
boldly tell her husband or friends that her doctor or even pastor slept
with her.”
Another woman who preferred to remain anonymous said she was almost lured into sleeping with one herbal doctor in Lagos. ”The
man was introduced to her as a prophet and herbal doctor. My friend
took me to his church at Epe. I was asked to fast for seven days while
he gave me some herbs to cook and drink. He asked me to return on the
day of my ovulation that I would be prayed for and after that sleep
with my husband.
“On
that day, I went there with my friend. When it was my turn to see the
prophet, he asked me to remove my pant and lie on the table. He also
told me to spread my legs and close my eyes. To ensure that my eyes were
closed, he used a red cloth to cover my eyes. I became suspicious but
played along although my eyes were closed but my legs were not. I
removed the blindfold as soon as someone touched my legs and said “open
your legs.” I got the shock of my life when I saw the prophet’s erected
joystick. I screamed and pushed him aside. Instead of hiding his face
in shame, he told me that he wanted to make me conceive in case my
husband is not able. I ran out of his office only for my friend who
heard my voice to order me to go back into the room and comply with the
prophet’s instruction. She said that there it was no big deal. I left
the place annoyed and disappointed.”
Reacting
to the incident, a lawyer, Emmanuel Eke said the victim needs to be
very convincing, giving no space for the accused to evade justice if
he is indeed guilty. “The
truth is that in Africa, it is hard to prove a rape case. This is an
uphill task. Medical examination is important here and I do not know
whether that is possible within the space that she reported the
incident. But winning is not the only issue. It is worth seeking for
justice. She may be believed empirically but may not be believed
legally. Most importantly, that will stop the doctor from trying such
out on another person. He is quite aware that he has a record with the
police. I commend the lady who was bold enough to report the matter.”
When
contacted on the incident, the state Police spokesperson, Dolapo Badmus
said the command is already aware of the case and would act
accordingly.
