TORONTO — A Toronto neurosurgeon who killed his wife, Dr. Elana Fric Shamji, two days after she filed for divorce lost his medical licence Friday, nearly a year after pleading guilty to second-degree murder in her death.
The disciplinary committee of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario also ordered Shamji to appear for a reprimand. But he admitted through his lawyer to committing professional misconduct by being found guilty of an offence that is relevant to his suitability to practise medicine.Peter Leigh told the panel Shamji accepts the consequences of his “violent and heinous crime” and went to great lengths to arrange his participation in the hearing.
“As in the criminal proceeding, in this proceeding Dr. Shamji has taken responsibility and he’s accepting the severe consequences, being revocation, that are commensurate with the nature of that violent crime.”
Good, now make him go away never to be heard from again!
No duh
How did he only get 14 years minimum? Glad I don't do criminal law.
