Basson s new bid to wriggle off apartheid hook Tmg Digital > By Tmg Digital - 18 January 2016 - 16:39 DEFENSIVE: Wouter Basson
Wouter Basson‚ dubbed Dr Death for his role in apartheid South Africa’s chemical warfare project‚ is making a new attempt to avoid punishment.
Basson is going to the Pretoria High Court on February 9 to claim that the process followed by the Health Professionals Council of South Africa when it found him guilty of unethical conduct was not fair.
The cardiologist‚ who has a private practice at Durbanville MediClinic‚ is also at the centre of a storm at Stellenbosch University‚ where for almost a year after the HPCSA finding he continued to tutor medical students in a public-private partnership with MediClinic Southern Africa.
