Struck off the register
The MPTS tribunal found that Dr Baraa Almasri's fitness to practise was impaired by reason of misconduct. It found that, between January 2019 and December 2020, he exchanged WhatsApp messages with a man later sentenced to life imprisonment for grievous bodily harm offences, and that his messages were capable of encouraging or assisting those offences. The tribunal also found that he knew the activities were illegal, failed to inform any authority, and refused to give the police access to his devices. It directed that his name be erased from the medical register.
