Sydney : Muslim Doctor Rafid Alramadan jailed for 13 years for Rape of patient.

A DOCTOR who drugged and raped a patient in central western NSW has been jailed for a maximum of 13 years and three months by a Sydney court.

Rafid Alramadan, 55, was convicted of three charges over the incident at his Grenfell surgery on December 8, 2005, in which he drugged a female patient with the tranquilliser diazepam, then indecently assaulted and raped her.
At his trial, the victim gave evidence that Alramadan had given her two injections in the arm, leaving her feeling "hazy" and sapping her strength.

He then fondled her and had sex without her consent. Alramadan was found guilty of unlawfully administering a stupefying drug with the intent to commit aggravated sexual assault.

He was also convicted of having sexual intercourse without the woman's consent, and indecent assault, offences aggravated by the fact that, as her doctor, she was under his authority.
