DR. DAVID SCERRI FROM WYTHENSHAWE FACES DISCIPLINARY ACTION OVER CHILD INDECENT IMAGES

A 48-year-old medical professional from Manchester, specifically from the Wythenshawe area, is now facing serious consequences following his conviction related to the possession of indecent images of children. Dr. David Scerri, who previously served at Aintree Hospital, has been found guilty of possessing six counts of such illicit material. The offences took place in 2014 and are entirely separate from his duties or responsibilities as a healthcare worker.

Following his conviction, the tribunal has mandated that Dr. Scerri must register as a sex offender for a period of five years. Additionally, he has been placed under a community order, which involves certain conditions and supervision. The authorities are also considering the possibility of revoking his medical license, which would effectively prevent him from practicing medicine in the future.

It is important to note that the hospital where Dr. Scerri was employed has confirmed that he is no longer part of their staff. The case has raised concerns within the community and highlights the ongoing efforts to address and prevent such offences, especially involving individuals in positions of trust and authority. The tribunal's decision and the potential removal of his medical license underscore the seriousness with which these crimes are being treated, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding vulnerable populations, particularly children.
