Fake psychotherapist from Hradčany faces charges for rape following drug administration
Prague police have recommended pressing charges against a man who posed as a psychotherapist and administered psychedelic drugs to women. The case involves at least seven victims.
Detectives recommend charges against man who drugged clients and sexually abused them
Prague detectives have submitted a recommendation to file charges to the prosecutor of the Municipal State Prosecutor's Office in Prague, police spokesperson Richard Hrdina told novinky.cz. "In this case, the investigation has already been concluded and last week the detectives submitted to the prosecutor a recommendation to file charges," Hrdina said.
The man is accused of rape, sexual assault, coercion, and unlawful production and handling of narcotic and psychotropic substances and poisons.
Police disclosed the case in November last year. The man posed as a psychotherapist and women visited him at his workplace on Černínská Street in Prague's Hradčany district, where therapy sessions took place mostly at night. According to criminologists, he administered psychedelic substances to them and exploited their subsequent state for sexual abuse.
At the time of the initial disclosure, police were aware of seven victims and called on any other potential victims to come forward. The investigative phase on the side of the criminologists is now closed and the Municipal State Prosecutor's Office in Prague will decide on the next steps.
