A 31-year-old doctor was found dead under suspicious circumstances in a seminar hall at Kolkata’s R.G. Kar Medical College, initially reported as suicide but later reclassified as rape and murder. The victim, discovered with extensive injuries and partially naked, had been seen socializing and finishing a call before her death.
Sanjay Roy, a civic volunteer with a dubious background and connections to the Kolkata Police, has been arrested. The college principal, Dr. Sandip Ghosh, who initially dismissed the case, resigned under public pressure but was merely transferred to another position.
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has called for a CBI inquiry into the case, but key evidence, including CCTV footage, remains missing. Accusations of cover-ups and administrative failures are rife, with public and political figures demanding swift justice and severe penalties for those involved. Concerns are growing over the investigation’s integrity and the potential influence of college authorities.
