Dr Iqbal WARIS

The tribunal will inquire into the allegation that, between April 2010 and June 2018, Dr Waris undertook locum shifts at a number of locations, when he was employed as Residential Medical Officer by Cape Medical Services (CMS). It is alleged that Dr Waris failed to notify CMS of his locum shifts and on one or more occasion between March and June 2018 he declined to undertake shifts for CMS.

It is further alleged that between October 2017 and October 2018, Dr Waris benefited from payments made by CMS to which he was not entitled. It is alleged that Dr Waris’s actions as set out above were dishonest.

This reflects the allegation as it stands at the start of the hearing. The allegation may be amended as the hearing proceeds and when findings of fact are made by the tribunal.
