A Pembrokeshire hospital is at the centre of a storm as a doctor faces serious allegations of misconduct. Dr. Velmurugan Kuppuswamy, a locum consultant, is being accused of inappropriate behaviour towards female colleagues at Withybush Hospital. The allegations include unwelcome touches, suggestive comments, and creating a hostile work environment. One shocking incident claims he instructed colleagues to use their chests as ping-pong bats while playing table tennis at a party!
The doctor also allegedly sent messages with flirtatious overtones and engaged in unwanted physical contact, reportedly ignoring pleas to stop. The case is now under the watchful eye of a medical tribunal, with a decision expected next year. The outcome could have significant implications for workplace conduct in medical settings.
This unfolding story is a reminder of the importance of maintaining professionalism and respect in all workplace interactions. Stay tuned for updates on the tribunal’s decision—what do you think about these allegations? Share your thoughts in the comments!
