The presence of Professor Daraï at the Paris Santé Femmes congress, organized by the National College of Gynecologists (CNGOF), rekindles the scandal.
The Collectif Stop aux violences obstetricales (StopVOG), at the origin of the revelations in September of the complaints of rape targeting the practitioner, denounces a "
symposium of shame
" and calls for a rally on Wednesday at 8:30 am in front of the exhibition center of the door of Versailles.
Dismissed from his post as head of department at the Tenon hospital in December, after an internal investigation by the Paris Hospitals (AP-HP), Professor Daraï continues to practice in this establishment.
A judicial investigation against him, for "
violence by a person responsible for a public service mission
", was opened in January and entrusted to an investigating judge.
"
Aware of the excitement aroused
" by his intervention, the CNGOF underlines that the specialist "
has not, to date, been sentenced by the courts
" and that he also continues "
to be invited to international congresses
" .
"
It is scandalous that it is put forward
", retorts StopVOG, which considers that "
while respecting the presumption of innocence, it is urgent to guarantee the safety of patients
".
