NYC plastic surgeon accused of turning model into ‘sex slave’ beat ex-wife, injected her with hormones: disturbing court docs

A Manhattan plastic surgeon — who was accused of turning a model into a “sex slave” in a bombshell lawsuit — allegedly also brutally abused his ex-wife and forcibly injected her with hormones, disturbing court docs claim.

Ammar Mahmoud is embroiled in a bitter legal battle with his former wife, a native of Syria, who filed a still-ongoing civil lawsuit against him in 2014 after their short-lived arranged marriage, records show.

“Plaintiff’s former husband attacked her on several occasions, including pushing her out of the house on a cold day without clothes on, and forcefully injecting growth hormones into her so that she could achieve the ‘perfect body,” a filing reads.

Many of her accusations — such as an incident in which he allegedly beat her and smothered her with a pillow — mirror the abuse allegedly suffered by his ex-girlfriend Maya Willow Sias, 25, who filed her own civil lawsuit against the doctor this week.

Bryan Swerling, who has represented Mahmoud’s ex-wife in the nearly 10 years since she filed her lawsuit, said he didn’t know about Sias’ case until it was exclusively reported in The Post Wednesday.

“I’m not surprised considering the allegations we made in our lawsuit from years ago,” he said.

The case filed by Mahmoud’s ex-wife — who The Post is not identifying because she’s the victim of alleged abuse — in Manhattan civil court originally included 37 causes for action against him, ranging from assault to slander.

Many counts — such as her accusation, detailed in a subsequent deposition, that he raped her on their 2013 honeymoon — were later dismissed by a judge because they fell outside a one-year statute of limitations, court documents show.

But the dismissals left many other alarming allegations more-or-less intact, including instances of abuse, forced injections and calculated character assassination.

The claim that Mahmoud hit her and smothered her with a pillow in December 2013 was left intact, as was an allegation that he beat her with a book and locked her out of their house in the cold while she wore nothing but her pajamas in March 2014.

The sickening suit also accuses Mahmoud’s doctor mother Daed Nokari of carrying out humiliating gynecological exams on his ex-wife — and then spreading false rumors in Syria that her daughter-in-law was a hermaphrodite, documents state.

Nokari had moved to Brooklyn from Syria, but often went back to the Middle Eastern country — where she approached her future daughter-in-law because “she was searching for a suitable wife for her son,” the lawsuit states.

The lawsuit describes her as a highly accomplished doctor from Syria who first connected with Mahmoud in 2011, striking up a correspondence. The pair eventually married in 2013 in Staten Island.

The move to the US was difficult for the new bride, who spoke little English at the time and couldn’t legally work, leaving her “completely financially dependent on her new husband and her in-laws,” court papers state.

The suit accuses Mahmoud and his mother of “Taking advantage of this vulnerability.”

“In sum, (she) came to the United States from Syria to live with her husband and his mother where she was at their complete mercy,” it reads.

Mahmoud allegedly became verbally abusive and physically violent with her almost immediately after her move to New York, according to the lawsuit.

He was a bodybuilder who had been injecting himself with a human growth hormone – and, disapproving of his new bride’s body, began to insist she take the drug and go to the gym, the lawsuit claims.

When she refused to take the drug, Mahmoud allegedly injected her “by force and without consent” multiple times, threatening her with violence when she refused, according to the suit.

At one point, Mahmoud’s wife asked her mother-in-law to recommend a gynecologist, according to the lawsuit. But Nokari, who was a gynecologist, instead insisted that she examine her daughter-in-law on a computer table because she said it be too expensive to send her to another doctor, court docs state.

“Under pressure and duress, plaintiff submitted to this humiliating examination by her mother-in-law,” the filing reads.

The original incident was dismissed from the lawsuit, but other allegedly forced gynecological examinations remain part of the case, records show.

The complaint also details a vicious alleged beating by Mahmoud that carries disturbing echoes of an assault that Sias, his later model paramour, contended left her fearing for her life.

Mahmoud, after coming home from an evening with friends, allegedly battered his then-wife by “stepping on her neck, throwing her on the floor, hitting her in face several times with his open hand, and smothering her with a pillow which prevented her from breathing or making noise,” the suit states.

The lawsuit contends as the couple’s marriage broke down, that Nokari in June 2014 began to tell friends and family in Syria that her daughter-in-law was a hermaphrodite, using an Arabic slur.

Mahmoud and his mother, in court filings, disputed that the word translated to hermaphrodite.

They filed a 2019 defamation suit against his ex-wife, contending she lobbed a “kitchen-sink variety of outright falsehoods” against them.

That case, along with Mahmoud’s ex-wife’s suit, remain ongoing.

Mahmoud, who previously denied Sias’ accusations, did not respond to The Post’s questions Wednesday as he emerged from his luxurious Alinea Medical Spa office along Fifth Avenue.

Dressed in all black sneakers, scrubs and a jacket, Mahmoud ignored a reporter as he talked on phone and entered a West 47th Street building’s lobby.

Jonah Zweig, Mahmoud’s attorney in the case pursued by his ex-wife, didn’t respond to requests for comment.

Nokari couldn’t be reached for comment.

Swerling, the attorney for Mahmoud’s ex-wife, said the new accusations leveled by Sias could feature in his long-running civil case.

Sias has alleged that a sexually and physically abusive Mahmoud drugged and imprisoned her inside his posh pad, according to her suit.

She also contended that Mahmoud shattered her eye socket and — in a bid to cover up his abuse — sadistically injected fillers into her face without anesthetic, the suit states.

Those accounts of abuse by Sias could potentially be used as evidence of an alleged pattern of bad behavior by Mahmoud in a potential trial over his ex-wife’s claims, Swerling said.

“It seems like repeat behavior, and it’s not surprising,” he said.
