Summary
A Toronto pediatric rheumatologist, Dr. Dilan Dissanayake, has been arrested and charged with accessing and possessing child sexual abuse material, allegedly between January 19–28. Police executed searches at his hospital and home, seizing devices including his work computer. He’s been granted $20,000 bail with social media restrictions. SickKids immediately placed him on leave, affirmed no patient risk, and removed his profile. His medical license is suspended by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario, and the University of Toronto placed him on administrative leave. The case remains under investigation, with no court proceedings yet. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
