‘Dr.’ Joshua Drah, the now infamous medical assistant who had been illegally operating an illegal abortion clinic – Universal Mission Clinic – conducting 1000s of abortions whiles having sex with some clients gave reasons for which he had to have sex with his clients.
That has brought into perspective the question of whether or not, his actions amounted to consensual sex with the consent of the clients or otherwise.
According to the raw footage that our hidden cameras captured from his abortion room, the man was seen almost always seated whiles several girls and young women came in one after the other to be operated upon.
He would however not start having sex with any lady that he wished to have sex with, he usually started by inserting his gloved hands into the female birth path repeatedly, then he began to give several excuses why he had to have sex with the patient in question.
Amongst many reasons that Drah used to have his sexual demands acceded to were, it would serve as an anesthesia for the pain that was likely to be experienced during the abortion and also to push off membranes that were obstructing ‘safe abortions,’ that could in the long run affect the womb.
Meanwhile, a legal practitioner has been speaking to the New crusading GUIDE on the issue of consent, according to him; the type of consent that Drah attained could at best be described as induced and laced with false pretence.
He dilates further on the issue by stating that consent in law was supposed to be voluntary and without duress from a free thinking adult; “but in a condition where a person is under treatment and the person supposed to be a doctor uses sex as a locus for treatment, that certainly cannot be legal consent.”
“For all intends and purposes, the person walked in for a medical treatment without sex in mind, in the middle of the treatment sex is used as a treatment? Such ‘consent’ is clearly under the mistaken belief of medical treatment,” he added.
According to him, legal authorities have spoken on this issue extensively and called on fellow lawyers to help delve deeper into the issue and to educate the citizenry on it.
The New Crusading GUIDE would follow the trial of Drah and would keep readers updated. Stay tuned.
Following is a transcription of two separate encounters during which he managed to convince two young ladies to allow him to have sex with them in the middle of an operation.
