German Pediatrician Charged with 130 Child Abuse Offences

A 46-year-old doctor in Brandenburg has been accused of abusing children at the Havelland Clinic over more than a decade. German reports say he allegedly committed these offences between December 2013 and his arrest in November 2025. The case emerged after a child’s mother filed a complaint against the paediatrician. Investigators then searched his home and clinic, seizing hard drives believed to contain incriminating material. Prosecutors are now probing whether there are additional victims. The hospital has launched an internal review of its safeguarding policies. Officials are examining whether a two-staff requirement during child examinations was breached and strengthening procedures to prevent any future incidents.
