Westfield Police Respond to Two Incidents at High School

**WESTFIELD, NJ** – The Westfield Police Department handled two separate incidents at Westfield High School on Wednesday. They responded to potential threats reported via social media and other comments made within the school premises.

Two North Jersey Physicians Lose Licenses Over Misconduct Allegations

**Trenton, NJ** – The State Board of Medical Examiners has permanently revoked the licenses of Humberto T. Perez and Ahmad “Nazir” Kahf, two physicians from North Jersey, following charges of alleged sexual misconduct. The decision was announced by Attorney General Matthew J. Platkin and the Division of Consumer Affairs.

Perez, who practiced family medicine in Jersey City, faced charges including two counts of second-degree sexual assault for inappropriate conduct during medical exams in July. Perez agreed to the license revocation to address the administrative allegations while the charges are still pending with the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office.

Kahf, a cardiologist in Haledon, had his license temporarily suspended in October 2023 after a woman recorded him allegedly committing fourth-degree criminal sexual contact during an office visit. In April, Kahf entered a pretrial intervention program, pausing his medical practice for the duration, with criminal charges to be dismissed upon successful completion.

Both physicians consented to the permanent revocation without admitting wrongdoing, barring them from future licensure and involvement in the medical practice in New Jersey. Deputy Attorney Generals from the Division of Law, under the Professional Boards
