Gynaecologist is quizzed by Ukrainian police ‘after hidden camera footage of dozens of his naked women patients undergoing examinations appeared on a porn site’

  • Ukrainian authorities questioned Dr Vyacheslav Tripolko as a suspect in Odessa
  • A woman reported to police that she saw her intimate examination on a porn site 
  • Tripolko has blamed rival gynaecologists for secretly installing the cameras 

A gynaecologist in Ukraine is suspected of selling hidden camera footage of dozens of his naked women patients to a porn website.

Police have questioned Dr Vyacheslav Tripolko after an unnamed woman saw herself on an adult site undergoing an ultrasound investigation.

Officers found a hidden camera in his Odessa clinic after receiving the complaint.

Dr Oleg Lukyanchuk, pictured, the head of the Odessa hospital where the gynecology clinic is based, has said that he was 'stunned' by Dr Tripolko's behaviour. Dr Tripolko, not pictured, claimed that someone must have installed the cameras when he had an alarm system fitted last year

Reports suggest footage showing dozens of women undergoing examinations appeared on an unnamed popular porn site.

A pre-trial criminal probe has been launched by police into the production and distribution of pornography which carries a maximum seven year jail term.

The ‘respected and popular’ gynaecologist has not been detained but is no longer holding surgeries at his clinic because his lease was annulled following the scandal.

A patient who exchanged texts with Dr Tripolko after the revelations surfaced said he denied making secret videos of naked or partially naked women.

She said: ‘He thinks he is a pawn in somebody else’s game.’

He blamed rival gynaecologists for secretly installing a camera in his clinic and posting the X-rated footage to a porn site, she said.

But the doctor told her he had been questioned by police over the footage.

‘Anyone could install that camera. It must be proved that it was Tripolko who installed it and passed on the videos,’ she said.

Police have also questioned the IT manager at an oncological hospital where Dr Tripolko’s independent practice is located.

However, this man told officers he had no responsibility for the gynaecological clinic which occupied rented space at the hospital and used a different internet provider.

The doctor claimed that last summer he had a new alarm installed in his clinic and a hidden camera could have been put in at the same time.

However, it appears videos from his surgery were uploaded on the porn site earlier than this.

The head of the hospital where the gynaecology clinic was based, Dr Oleg Lukyanchuk, said: ‘At first, I thought it was someone’s evil joke.

‘As a citizen, as a doctor, I am stunned.’
