Judge rules for testing DNA of fertility doctor suspected of fathering up to 200 children
(CNN)A fertility doctor suspected to have fathered scores of people by secretly swapping donors’ sperm for his own will have his DNA tested, after a Dutch court supported a legal challenge by 22 of his potential children.
The group were all conceived with the help of fertility doctor Jan Karbaat, who died in 2017 at the age of 89 and had long been suspected of using his own sperm to impregnate clients — a charge he denied.
But a court ruled Wednesday that Karbaat’s family must allow his DNA to be examined, after agreeing that there was sufficient evidence that he did use his own sperm.
