“The accusations are for article 119 of the penal code, paragraphs 1, 2 and 3. After these five complaints of aggravated sexual abuse, the girls created an Instagram, called @hastaacadoc, where two other situations happened, that they went also denounced. “, lawyer Claudia Perugino told C5N. And he added: “It is terrible how, with hard testimony and force, this person continues to practice medicine.”
In this sense, Perugino raised his voice to “call on the Medical Association to stop the registration and the Prosecutor’s Office to accelerate the steps because this case must be raised to oral judgment.”
“Clementi must be arrested, because it is the only way to stop the abuse. This would also be a message for society: it cannot be that, after such a terrible cause, a person continues his normal life as if nothing happened” , said the lawyer, summarizing: “This person spent 20 years sexually assaulting women. This represents a judicial reform in our country.”
As published by Télam, “Clementi has already been investigated for six facts and now two facts have been added that are in full process” and it is clarified that “in the Provincial Code of Criminal Procedure the appeal in 308 – in reference to an article that control the investigation – implies prosecution”. The six facts he was prosecuted were reported last October, and now “two more complaints have been received: for an event that occurred in 2000 and for a more recent one.”
After the complaints, the lawyer for the complaints commented on how the “model” applied by the gynecologist was: “They came to the clinic for a consultation and they were in a vulnerable situation because they were on the stretcher. Clementi was not keep no measure. in respect to the patients: he makes them undress in front of him. In fact, on some occasions he even helped them take off their clothes, besides not wearing gloves for the check-up”.
In this sense, Perugino added: “Although in the province of Buenos Aires there is no protocol for gynecological care, there are ways that doctors take into account, but obviously Clementi did not apply them.”
Diego Javier Clementi continues to be an active member of the Medical College District II of the Province of Buenos Aires with registration number 223.854, as can be verified by searching the online registry.
“If one of them was a woman, we ask them to contact the girls through Instagram so that we can add their complaints to the cause,” the lawyer closed.
