Baker case raises very serious questions

IN JANUARY last year, Britain’s General Medical Council (GMC) erased the name of Dr Hassan Hassan Baker from its medical register.

It said it was satisfied that Dr Baker “has blatantly disregarded his obligations as a medical practitioner registered with the GMC”.

“He has repeatedly ignored requests to undergo assessment and has failed to attend all the GMC hearings,” the GMC’s Fitness To Practise (FTP) panel said.
