PVE doc gets jail for sexually assaulting patient
A 72-year-old doctor from Palos Verdes Estates was ordered on Thursday to spend 120 days in jail for sexually assaulting a female patient in his East Los Angeles office.
Roger Giani, who also uses the name Iraj Sadghiani, will also have to register as a sex offender, attend 52 weeks of sexual compulsive anonymous meetings and is forbidden from practicing medicine in California, according to Frank Mateljan, a spokesman for the City Attorney's Office.
Giani was convicted by a jury of sexual battery and simple battery in Los Angeles Superior Court.
On Nov. 11, 2007, Giani assaulted the victim when they were alone in a room together at his Angelus Medical Clinic.
The then 22-year-old victim said Giani groped her breasts and rubbed his groin against her body for sexual gratification.
The jury also heard evidence that the defendant had inappropriately touched the victim's sister in the past.
