Erasure(struck off the register)
The HCPTS panel found that physiotherapist Leslie Richards's convictions for two assaults by penetration and actual bodily harm impaired his fitness to practise. It found a continuing public risk and no meaningful evidence of insight or remediation, ordered erasure and imposed an 18-month interim suspension for the appeal period.
