Zholia Alemi denies 20 offences including forgery and fraud

Giving evidence in her trial at Manchester Crown Court on Monday, Zholia Alemi said she qualified with a medical degree in New Zealand in 1992. She told the court she did not forge documents which she sent to the General Medical Council in 1995 with the aim of becoming registered as a doctor.

She claimed she left her home country, divorcing her husband, after she and her family were tortured following the Iranian revolution. Alemi said she still had scars from the physical torture she suffered. She denied failing her exams during the six-year course. The prosecution allege Alemi completed a degree in Bachelor of Human Biology in New Zealand but, after failing a number of years, in 1994 she was stopped from re-enrolling at the university to complete the more advanced course.

Asked about mistakes in the letter, which spelt verify as “varify” and referred to “six years medical trainee with satisfactory grade”, Alemi said: “I don’t think that this letter could have been produced by somebody who has got even just a bachelor degree in any subject from Auckland university. Francis FitzGibbon KC, defending, asked whether it would have been possible for her to achieve those qualifications without a medical degree. Alemi said: “No, it’s impossible.”
