Andrew Cassels had been allowed to continue working under strict conditions in the run up to his trial but was found guilty at Hamilton Sheriff Court last month.

A Scots nurse who was found guilty of sexually assaulting a colleague on a busy hospital ward has been suspended by an industry watchdog.

The Nursing and Midwifery Council have now slapped him with an 18-month interim suspension and will later decide whether he should be banned from the profession. “Unless there has been a material change of circumstances, a reviewing panel will review the interim suspension order at an administrative meeting within the next six months.

She told the court: “I was writing up my patient notes before the handover. He came up behind me and I felt his hand on my buttock. He massaged or touched me in a circular motion three times.
