Doctor Death

In south Africa, Dr Wouter Basson is charged with producing illegal drugs in the apartheid era. He is accused of creating viruses that would only attack black people. He is a cardiologist in Cape Town but now he may lose his medical licence , as per (HPC) Health Professions Council.

HPC is investigating whether he should be struck off the doctor’s roll for providing soldiers with cynide capsules. He is alleged to provided security forces cyanide to help them commit suicide, “weaponising thousands of 120mm mortar bombs with teargas and providing drugs that would disorientate (SADF) South African Defence Force prisoners.

Dr Basson brought an application saying no evidence of wrongdoing had been brought against him.

“I closed this chapter 20 years ago”, he told reporters outside the hearing at the HPC offices in Pretoria last year. “All I want is to continue serving the country as a medical professional”, he said at this time.

Next hearing is on March 27.

Basson was acquitted in 2002 of 67 charges after having been suspended from military post with full pay in 1999.
