GP who suggested 'friends with benefits' affair suspended for sexual harassment

A GP has been suspended for nine months after a tribunal found that he had sexually harassed a female colleague while already sanctioned for "failing to maintain a professional boundary" with a patient. Dr Sunil Kumar Sahu was working as a family doctor in Fife when he pestered the woman, known only as Ms A, for an affair and on another occasion suggested they could be "friends with benefits".
