Respected neurosurgeon jailed for sexually assaulting female patients A disgraced neurosurgeon convicted of multiple sex offences against vulnerable female patients has been jailed for 16 years. Nafees Hamid had earlier been found guilty of nine sex assaults against six women between 2012 and 2013, after a lengthy trial at Birmingham Crown Court. The 51-year-old was cleared by the jury of further counts of sexual assault relating to four other women. The offences were all carried out by Hamid, a highly regarded and award-winning specialist neurosurgeon, at the city's Queen Elizabeth and Priory Hospitals. Passing sentence, Judge Patrick Thomas QC told Hamid: "You are without question in my experience the most intelligent man I have ever seen in the dock of a criminal court. "You, through hard work and devotion to your course of studies, rose high within your profession to become an enormously respected consultant neurosurgeon at one of the great hospitals in our region." The judge said everybody in Hamid's trial had spoken highly of his clinical skills, but added: "You were brought low by a simple failing - lust. "And you exercised your lust as a result of arrogance. You liked doing what you did, touching sexually your female patients, and you took the opportunity to do it because you could." The judge added of the offences: "This is the most extreme breach of trust. "These ladies went to see you because they had significant problems and they thought - with your skills, abilities and experience - you were the person who could help them with the medical problems. "Instead you grossly abused them." A two-month trial heard that Hamid, of Russell Road, Moseley, Birmingham, committed the offences by indecently touching patients, some of whom were questioned about their sex lives during intimate examinations. Two of the six victims were assaulted on more than one occasion, while four of them were subjected to attacks lasting several minutes. Hamid denied a total of 15 charges relating to women aged between mid-20s and mid-60s, claiming legitimate examinations had been misconstrued. Judge Thomas, who heard that Hamid will now be struck off, ordered the "enormously gifted" surgeon to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life. Pointing out the high level of psychological harm caused to the six victims, the judge told the married father of three: "In every case the impact has been extreme and severe and, potentially at least, life- changing." During the sentencing, Hamid showed no emotion and nodded in the direction of the judge as he was ordered to be taken to the cells. Q UESTION Non 1.

Le reportage met-il manifestement en évidence des problèmes touchant à l’égalité ou à l’inégalité entre les femmes et les hommes ? 4. Ne sais pas, ne parviens pas à me décider Bien que les paroles du juge soulignent la position de pouvoir inégal ayant créé des conditions d’agression sexuelle par un neurochirurgien sur ses patientes, le reportage n’aborde pas le thème de l’inégalité entre femmes et hommes. Nous sommes en désaccord avec l’affirmation que le reportage “souligne clairement les thèmes liés à l’égalité ou à l’inégalité entre femmes et hommes”. Coder 2 3. Ni d’accord ni en désaccord

Q UESTION 23 Le reportage remet-il clairement en question les stéréotypes de genre ? Plusieurs descripteurs parmi ceux utilisés montrent les femmes comme des personnes dociles, soumises et requérant être sauvées par leur médecin. Le reportage ne transmet pas l’idée de savoir si les femmes ont fait quelque chose pour s’opposer aux agressions ou si elles ont agi pour envoyer le médecin devant les tribunaux. Le reportage décrit Hamid comme un “neurochirurgien de grande réputation dans sa spécialité” et ajoute qu’il “avait reçu plusieurs reconnaissance” ; sa carrière professionnelle ressort et s’oppose à sa situation présente de criminel sexuel. Nous sommes en désaccord avec l’affirmation qui avance que ce reportage “remet clairement en question les stéréotypes de genre”. Coder 2 2. En désaccord 1. D’accord. 4.

Q UESTION 24 Ce reportage mérite-t-il une analyse supplémentaire? 1. Oui 2. Non Il est clair que le reportage ne comporte la perspective d’aucune femme, même s’il se centre sur le cas d’une agression sexuelle contre des femmes. Bien qu’il soit compréhensible que l’on n’ait pas mentionné les noms des femmes, elles auraient pu cependant être citées. Il est fait plusieurs références à la carrière professionnelle du médecin, malgré la sentence dictée contre lui pour le crime commis. Le reportage aurait été plus complet s’il avait inclus la perspective des femmes, en particulier des survivantes des agressions, desquelles nous sommes informés par les commentaires du juge et de l’auteur de l’article. Le reportage s’avère intéressant pour une analyse ultérieure. Coder 1 Inscrivez vos commentaires dans l’espace prévu (Q. 20) si vous avez codé 1 ici.
