    Aged in her 20s, the woman said she asked Dr Stanislaw Franciszek Zulichowski (71) for an explanation for what he did.
    He told her: "Well, I just kind of started liking it and got carried away." He added: "Well, you know I am just a man, not only a doctor."
    The Medical Council, following a fitness to practise (FTP) inquiry that made several findings of professional misconduct against the doctor, applied to the High Court to strike him off its specialist register.
    Mr Justice Kelly agreed this week to cancel the registration of Dr Zulichowski.


    Why was the law designed to permit only the High Court to strike a doctor off the medical register instead of letting the Medical Council itself do it?
