A GP convicted of losing control and attacking two Tube workers is free to continue working at two Chingford surgeries, it has emerged.  

Dr Sahar Al-Khashaly, 53, of Charteris Road, Woodford Green, "lost all self-control" and lashed out at Malcolm Shaw and Indira Ramsaroop at Leicester Square station on June 10 last year.  

She denied the assaults but admitted losing her temper as she feared she would miss the last train and be left stranded in central London, but was found guilty of two counts of common assault by beating at City of London Magistrates Court on April 9 and ordered to pay £2,250 in fines, compensation and court costs.  

Al-Khashaly is employed by Churchill Healthcare, which runs both GP practices in Chingford.  

Partner Dr Elliot Singer said: "Dr Al-Khashaly is registered with the GMC and on the NHSE performers list.  

"Unless the GMC suspend or remove her from the medical register or NHSE suspend or remove her from the performers list, Dr Al-Khashaly can continue to work as a GP.  

"We have no other comment." 

Al-Khashaly had arrived at the busy station at around 11.30pm after a night out with friends in the West End. 

The doctor, who is registered to practice at Chingway Medical Centre in Ching Way and Churchill Medical Centre in Churchill Terrace, demanded staff members let her through the closed gate and shouted: "I'm a doctor actually, I work for the NHS".  

After being refused entry through the automatic gates, the mother-of-one, who is originally from Iraq, screamed and shouted at Mrs Ramsaroop as she thrust a camera phone into her face before violently grabbing her by her arm.    

The 24-year Transport for London worker was then chased by the 5ft 2ins medic as she fled to the control room for safety, bumping her head on the way. 

In footage captured on the doctor's own mobile phone, Al-Khashaly can be heard  shouting: "This woman is on something, she's not sober is she? 

"You're in work and you're not sober. Get me through the gate." 

The video footage shown in court then suddenly stops as a stunned Mr Shaw intervenes and struggles with the GP over the mobile phone. 

During the scuffle, Al-Khashaly grabbed Mr Shaw by the arms, leaving him with scratches.

The video footage shown in court then suddenly stops as a stunned Mr Shaw intervenes and struggles with the GP over the mobile phone. 

During the scuffle, Al-Khashaly grabbed Mr Shaw by the arms, leaving him with scratches. 

Following the incident, Mrs Ramsaroop took almost two weeks off work after becoming ill through sleepless nights, worry and fear, the court heard.   

Following her conviction, Al-Khashaly, who appeared under her married name Hussain, told the court: "'I'm very sorry about the way I expressed myself with my agitation and frustration." 

Sentencing her, District Judge Quentin Purdy, said she had not only subjected Mrs Ramsaroop to "completely unjustified violence", but also "humiliation" for falsely suggesting she was intoxicated at work.  

He continued: "The evidence is overwhelming. You completely lost your self-control. 

"Unusually for the sort of incident this court regularly deals with, there is no hint of intoxication in any way. 

"You were anxious about missing the last train, concerned about being late for work or unable to work the next day, cultural embarrassment by being left in London as a married Muslim woman. 

"It was completely out of character, but as we have all seen, you acted in an unpleasant and hysterical fashion towards numerous members of staff. 

"You have lost a great deal by your lack of self-control. 

"Your good name is now lost with these two convictions for assault."
