Hong Kong doctor accused of sex attack during scoliosis examination

A Hong Kong doctor was on Tuesday accused of touching the breasts and lower abdomen of a young patient when she went to see him with back pain.

The 24-year-old woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, told Kowloon City Court that Dr John Lee Young-king slipped his hands into her bra eight times while checking for scoliosis – a condition in which the spine curves from side to side – at his clinic.
