Former Sabah hospital director demands fairness in sexual harassment probe

Former Sabah hospital director demands fairness in sexual harassment probe

The former Sabah hospital director implicated in a sexual harassment allegation is seeking transparency and procedural fairness in the ongoing investigation, according to his lawyer Joan Goh. The Health Minister has stated that the ministry stands by its decision to transfer the former director to a medical officer position to prevent disruption to the investigations.

However, Goh has challenged this decision, expressing concerns over the fairness of the removal of her client from his position and the implications it may have on his professional standing and reputation. She has also raised questions about the neutrality of the administrative arrangement, suggesting that a neutral alternative could have been made without placing the complainant in the position previously held by her client.
