Mississauga (Canada): A 25-year-old Indian-origin man has been arrested in Canada for allegedly exposing himself to female medical staff, including doctors, across multiple clinics in Mississauga, Peel Regional Police (PRP) confirmed on Tuesday. The accused, identified as Vaibhav from Brampton, reportedly used fake medical complaints and even a false identity to gain access to women physicians, with the intent of initiating inappropriate physical contact.
According to investigators, the disturbing pattern of behaviour unfolded over several months in 2025. Police allege that Vaibhav repeatedly visited various medical facilities, pretending to suffer from ailments that would require examination by female doctors. During these visits, he is accused of exposing himself and manipulating situations to try to prompt physical contact.
In some instances, police say the accused used a false identity, introducing himself as “Akashdeep Singh” to clinic staff and doctors. Authorities believe this deception was part of an intentional plan to mislead medical professionals and avoid detection while repeating the offences at different clinics.
