A 46-year-old German paediatrician has been charged with 130 cases of sexual abuse, including serious allegations of child rape. The charges stem from a report made by a mother who suspected her child had been assaulted, leading to the doctor's arrest in November. The alleged offences occurred between 2013 and 2025 at clinics in Brandenburg state, near Berlin, where the doctor worked under the Havelland healthcare group. The prosecutor's office in Potsdam confirmed that the accused is charged with multiple offences against sexual autonomy, emphasizing the severity of the allegations. The number of children involved in the abuse has not been disclosed. Following the charges, the Havelland Kliniken group expressed its commitment to supporting the investigation and offered condolences to any affected patients and their families. This incident is reminiscent of a recent case in the UK where a paediatrician was arrested for sexually assaulting 103 children, highlighting a disturbing trend in child abuse cases involving medical professionals.
