Erasure(struck off the register)
The MPTS tribunal found that Dr Hussain was convicted on 2 March 2023 at Chelmsford Crown Court of doing an act intending to pervert the course of justice, having attended a complainant's address with £5,000 and a retraction statement. He was sentenced to 14 months' imprisonment on 5 February 2025. The tribunal assessed the risk to public protection as high, found a persistent lack of insight, and determined that erasure was the only proportionate sanction. An immediate order was imposed.
