Frankfort Doc Arraigned on Sex Charges, Ordered to Fork Over Passport

A Frankfort pediatrician charged with groping five women in his Colorado Avenue office already lost his medical license. Now he can't have a passport either.

Dr. Kishor Jain, 59, was ordered to turn in his passport during his arraignment in Will County court Thursday morning. Jain's attorney, Gerald Kielian, said the passport had already been surrendered the the sheriff's department, but Jain would still comply with the order.

Special prosecutor Dave Neal, who asked Judge Robert Livas to order Jain to surrender his passport, said he believes Jain is originally from India.

Jain faces 10 counts of felony criminal sexual abuse, five counts of misdemeanor battery, and a single count of criminal sexual assault for allegedly groping five women while working at the Hedges Clinic. Jain stopped working at the clinic after his arrest in February.

The Illinois Department of Financial & Professional Regulation then suspended Jain's medical license indefinitely after he refused to testify at a hearing.

Jain is also the target of four civil lawsuits alleging he groped, fondled and sexually assaulted women while working as a doctor. A fifth lawsuit accuses Jain of sexually assaulting a minor child.

Jain did not speak during his arraignment. Kielian entered a plea of not guilty on his behalf.

Jain did not speak after the hearing either, and dashed down an alley to avoid photographers.
