The 47-year-old doctor, Michael Lever, was jailed on Thursday for the abuse of two women over a period of 20 years.

During the hearing at Edinburgh, one of the victims said he put a pillowcase over her face and ignored her screams while the ordeal lasted.

The brutalised victim was later found in a wardrobe with her hands tied to the back naked.

Another of his victims said, the doctor put drugs into her drink that made her sleep, although she initially found him attractive.

The victim told the court, “When I woke up, it was the next day. I was naked and propped up against a sofa.”

Lever, who has since been struck off the General Medical Council, insisted the women agreed to having sex with him.

He was previously jailed for 15 months in 2013 after being found guilty of attacking members of his family.

He choked his wife while she was pregnant at a hospital accommodation in Carluke, Lanarkshire, in 1997 and 1998 and was convicted of attacking her son between July 2001 and March 2004 and his 16-year-old daughter between 2008 and 2010.
