Renowned British-Palestinian doctor and activist Ghassan Abu Sittah has been fully cleared after an attempt by the pro-Israel group UK Lawyers For Israel (UKLFI) to revoke his medical license was firmly rejected by the Interim Orders Tribunal, the International Centre of Justice for Palestinians (ICJP) announced on Tuesday.
The General Medical Council (GMC) filed the suspension request as part of an ongoing investigation, the ICJP confirmed.
The complaint was initially brought forward by UKLFI, who claimed that Abu Sittah was “unfit” to continue practising medicine over his social media posts and called for his license to be revoked.
The UKLFI attempted “to tarnish Professor Abu Sittah’s esteemed reputation and diminish his standing as a prominent figure within the British Palestinian community”, the ICJP said.
Great news for Dr. Ghassan Abu Sittah! It’s important to stand up for those who are unjustly targeted. On a different note, if you’re looking for a hassle free way to manage medical expenses, you can easily pay your medical bills without logging in to PayMyDoctor. It’s a secure and convenient option!
