This is the second arrest of the suspect in the context of an investigation that began in February for sexual assaults.
The detainee allegedly took non-consensual photographs of the victims' private parts to gain their trust and continue the abuse.
The investigation has identified a total of nine victims and one witness.
National Police officers have arrested a doctor as the alleged perpetrator of a crime against privacy and several crimes against sexual freedom, as part of an investigation that began last February.
The events date back to February 1, 2026, when the first arrest of the suspect took place, after the agents became aware of several episodes in which, allegedly, the doctor, taking advantage of his status as a physician and the vulnerable situation of the patients, had made sexual touches during health care.
As a result of this police action, the investigations continued, detecting the possible commission of new acts, which led to the initiation of new proceedings for a crime against privacy, as it was found that the investigated party allegedly took non-consensual photographs of the victims' breasts and buttocks.
These images were subsequently used by the suspect himself to show to other women, with the aim of gaining their trust and facilitating the continuation of acts of a sexual nature, all in the exercise of his duties and taking advantage of his professional position.
As a result of the actions taken, and within the framework of the ongoing judicial proceedings, a warrant for entry and search of the investigated person's home was requested, as well as the secrecy of the proceedings, both measures being authorized by the competent judicial authority.
On the morning of April 7, 2026, the agents proceeded to arrest the suspect in the vicinity of his home, seizing at that time the mobile phone that he allegedly used to capture and store the images.
Subsequently, the entry and search of his home was carried out, in the presence of the judicial authority and his legal representation, continuing with the investigation proceedings.
The investigation has so far identified a total of nine victims and one witness, all of them women, including patients and workers from different health centers, whom the investigated party approached using the same modus operandi based on abuse of trust derived from his professional status.
The detainee was placed at the disposal of the competent judicial authority, who charged him with a crime against privacy and several crimes against sexual freedom, and ordered his immediate provisional imprisonment.
The Family and Women's Assistance Unit (UFAM) of the Telde Local Police Station has set up the telephone numbers 928 704 137 and 928 704 139 so that anyone who may have been a victim of similar events can contact the investigating agents.
