A doctor is accused of operating a clinic scam.
Authorities in Germany have arrested a hospital doctor on suspicion he drugged and sexually abused female patients participating in a fake clinical study he had set up.
German news agency dpa reports that the unidentified 48-year-old worked at a clinic in the Bavarian town of Bamberg.
The case came to light after a young woman went to police for help last month and blood tests confirmed she had been sedated against her will.
