Inquiry into rogue surgeon told of efforts to locate him in Libya

Campaigners including many former patients of Sam Eljamel had long called for the public inquiry (PA) -

An inquiry into the practice of former neurosurgeon Sam Eljamel has attempted to locate him in hospitals in Libya where he is believed to be working, a lawyer has said.

Mr Eljamel was head of neurosurgery at Dundee’s Ninewells Hospital from 1995 until his suspension in December 2013, during which time he is thought to have harmed dozens of patients and left some with life-changing injuries.
