A
Nigerian doctor accused of sexually assaulting a patient appeared in
court Friday and may lose his medical license following accusations of
sexual assault made by a female patient.
He raped me. He iss a rapist,said Anolan Drago, alleged victim.
Drago, 29 is talking about her doctor, Edwin Njoku. She says he sexually assaulted her last October in his East Hartford office during an exam. She went to the emergency room after the attack, and police were called.
Police gathered evidence including DNA samples from saliva on Dragoâ breast and fluid on her clothes and body. That evidence was presented at Dr. Njoku disciplinary hearing where he faces the loss of his license to practice.
His license has already been suspended. A lab technician testified that the DNA in the fluids is consistent with Dr. Njoku. An East Hartford police officer said, when he first interviewed Dr. Njoku, the doctor had a curious reaction.
He said that I will not admit that I have had intercourse. If that is what you want me to do, I am not going to do that,said Sgt. Joshua Litwin of the East Hartford Police Department.
Dr. Njoku actions were curious because no one had mentioned what the accusations were.
Dr. Njoku attorney told the medical panel that Drago recount of what happened was inconsistent. But the lawyer for the health department had this response.
The victim did not make up the DNA results and they match, exactly, her story,said David Tilles, Health Dept. Attorney.
Dr.Njoku sat listening to all of the details without taking the stand. His attorney rested without calling any witnesses.
I have lots of things to say, and I will say it to you at the end of the criminal proceedings, but at this present time its improper for me to do so, said Dr.Njoku, accused Physician.
His accuser was also in the room, and it was no easier for her.very hard just to sit there and see him sitting like he didn't do nothing. Like he is an innocent person and he is not, he did say to you all through the TV that the truth will come out and the truth did came out. Once and for all I have to prove once again the DNA. It shows everything,said Drago, alleged victim
