The British-born neurosurgeon, who has worked for the University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire (UHCW) NHS Trust, appeared before a medical tribunal misconduct hearing. Dr Talibi, of Tamworth, Staffs, accumulated a range of horrifying images, videos and documents on his electronic devices between 2007 and 2018. Some photos showed him posing with a large quantity of knives and an axe, which he admitted. But others, including selfies, showed him holding or pointing various firearms including rifles, semi-automatics and handguns. The tribunal also found that Dr Talibi sent a Snapchat message, which included an image of three knives, a meat cleaver and a small sword, which read: 'Who wants to play?' But a charge he posed with a Russian rocket launcher was dropped. Other charges levelled at Dr Talibi that were found proved included threatening, abusing and raping a woman. The tribunal heard how Dr Talibi attacked a woman - referred to as Ms A - and behaved in a threatening and abusive manner towards her, which included threatening to waterboard her and brandishing a knife in front of her. He denied raping the woman three times, but the tribunal found that on one occasion they had sex without her consent and without him 'having reasonable belief' she was consenting. Lucy Letby cops arrest 3 senior members of leadership team at hospital where killer nurse murdered 7 babies Some of the images found on Dr Talibi's electronic devices are thought to have have been taken 'in a foreign location'. But one photo showing semi-automatic firearms, pistols and magazines laid out on floor of a garden patio is believed to have been taken in the UK. When questioned by Simon Jackson KC, for the GMC, Dr Talibi admitted that on reflection he'd been 'foolish' to pose for the photos but he'd thought 'it was cool' at the time. But he denied being 'obsessed' with guns and expressing 'anti-Western attitudes' and said many photos showed 'BB' or 'toy' guns. Dr Talibi, who was accused of bringing the profession into disrepute, said his interests in guns and weaponry stemmed from his time as an army cadet at university and he also had an interest in 'West Asian geo-politics'. The tribunal heard that he regarded himself as a 'British patriot' and abhorred 'terrorism in any form'. But Mr Jackson said recordings the doctor had made showed he had 'anti-Western sentiments'. Dr Talibi replied: 'I'm sure everyone is allowed to disagree with politics but I don't disagree with being a law-abiding citizen in the West. 'They're two different things.' SICK VIDEOS Graphic images he downloaded or viewed of beheadings included members of the Taliban killing civilians or Pakistani soldiers and he admitted possessing an image of a waterboarding device. But charges Dr Talibi possessed 'a quantity of sensitive material' connected to the terrorists in the 9/11 attacks. This included immigration, customs and ID documents and downloaded articles about making an ignition device from foil scrap were not proved. Dr Talibi admitted additional charges of making racist and discriminatory comments. The included him saying he 'hated' non-Muslims, Afghans and Afghan culture and using the derogatory term 'kuffar' to describe non-Muslims. Dr Talibi also admitted creating a profile on a dating website in which the described himself as a '28-year-old brain surgeon'. He uploaded a photograph of him participating in live brain surgery that showed the exposed brain of a patient. Charges relating to taking milk powder from a Asda supermarket, defrauding EDF Energy over a £770 energy bill and recording a court appearance for driving offences, were also found proved.

Doctor used picture with patient's ‘exposed brain' on dating site
A doctor who used a picture of himself taking part in a brain surgery on a dating profile is facing a ban from medicine. Dr Sayed Talibi, from Tamworth, Staffordshire, described himself as a '28-year-old brain surgeon' and uploaded the image which showed the exposed brain of a patient without their consent. It was among a string of complaints upheld by a medical tribunal against him, including making racist statements towards others, assaulting a woman and behaving 'in a threatening, abusive and sexually motivated manner towards her'. He was also pictured with banned weapons, including a large number of knives and an axe. The Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service (MPTS) found his fitness to practise was impaired due to his misconduct. A decision on what sanctions to impose on Dr Talibi will be decided over the summer. 'I hate white people' The ruling said the doctor carried out an attack on a woman, identified only as Ms A, when she had not consented. He also subjected her to violence and threatened to waterboard her, it was heard. Detailing its findings, the Service said Dr Talibi had used racist language to describe others. It was determined and proven he said 'I do not like Afghan culture, I hate Afghan culture,' as well as 'I hate kuffar and white people' and 'I hate this country, I hate Afghan people equally.' He was also banned from Asda after failing to scan his shopping at a supermarket and tried to offer money to a security guard to halt a probe. The panel found he lied about an energy bill he blamed on a tenant and illegally made an audio recording of a court hearing. In a ruling, the service's panel, sitting in Manchester, told him: 'Your actions and the course of conduct risked bringing the profession into disrepute. 'And that by reason of the matters set out above, your fitness to practise is impaired because of your misconduct.'
