The emergency medicine registrar who said “some women deserve to be raped” has been suspended from work while his employer investigates.

Dr Christopher Kwan Chen Lee was handed a six-week ban by the Tasmanian Health Practitioners Tribunal last month after he admitted to posting violent and sexist comments in an online forum.
