Just A Domestic, No Need For Press Interest...

A medical student is facing jail after he admitted throwing sulphuric acid in the face of a junior doctor.

Milad Rouf, 25, left Dr Rym Alaoui with 'life-changing injuries' after he threw the corrosive substance over her on the doorstep of her home in Brighton at 4.20pm on May 20.

More of those overseas doctors without which the NHS would grind to a halt, I see? Well, they are certainly keeping it going, in one respect - treating each other! 

Judge Christine Laing QC (Ed: Oh, dear...) said she was mindful of the 'extreme nature of this offence'.

She said: 'Given the serious nature of this offence I have to consider all options. I also have have to consider the question of dangerousness.'

The court also heard a full psychiatric report had been carried out and would be available on sentencing.

Wouldn't this be making more of a splash, usually? 

In 2016, Rouf launched an online resource website for medics called Docbot. While also working as an F1 doctor, Dr Alaoui joined the online staff and worked in marketing and finance.

Ah. Just a little falling out between friends and colleagues, then. How vibrant!
