Ontario’s medical regulator suspends the licence of a doctor at Toronto’s Hospital for Sick Children after the doctor is arrested on charges related to child sexual abuse and exploitation material. The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) states on its website that Dilan Dissanayake is not permitted to practise medicine while the suspension is in effect. The suspension follows the arrest reported on Tuesday, according to the regulator’s notice. Both outlets describe the same regulatory action and the same underlying criminal allegations involving child sexual abuse and exploitation material.

The reports do not provide further details about the allegations beyond their connection to child sexual abuse and exploitation material, and they do not describe any outcome of the criminal case.
