Doctor who made false murder claims is struck off
Britain’s General Medical Council’s fitness-to-practice panel delivered their ruling after earlier finding Dr Southall, 59, guilty of falsely accusing a grieving mother of drugging and murdering her 10-year-old son.
Their ruling comes three years after he was found guilty of serious professional misconduct for accusing the husband of solicitor Sally Clark of murdering their children. Ms Clark was wrongly jailed for their deaths in 1999 and released on appeal four years later. Her family said she never got over her ordeal; she was found dead in March this year.
