RG Kar hospital

BJP MP Jyotirmay Singh Mahato urged the ED to investigate Mamata Banerjee's involvement in the alleged health scam in the state given the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar Hospital in Kolkata.

CBI pointed out that Sandip Ghosh followed a non-transparent method for the appointment of house staffers by surpassing due process.

The Anti-Corruption Branch of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) arrested Dr Sandip Ghosh on September 2.

The letter was written by Sandip Ghosh to Public Works Department (PWD) on 10th August, a day after the gruesome crime.

In his statement, the victim’s father said that despite filing a complaint for an FIR between 6-7 pm, the police delayed registering the FIR until 11:45 pm. This contradicts the claims made by Kapil Sibal, counsel for the Mamata Banerjee-led-West Bengal Government, in the Supreme Court.

The seeming inevitability of it getting struck down in a court of law alludes that it could merely be an act to pander to the gallery rather than a true pursuit to seek Justice for women and set a deterrence against heinous crimes.

According to the plea by the Centre government, the Bengal government’s non-cooperation with CISF stationed at RG Kar Hospital is "unpardonable" and "symptomatic of a systemic malaise".

The anti-rape Bill can be seen as an attempt to divert the anger of the people against the TMC government. While introducing the bill, CM Banerjee explained that the Bill further tightens the provisions of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and prescribes the death penalty for rapists if their acts result in the death of the victim or they suffer severe brain damage.

Besides Sandip Ghosh, CBI arrested his security guard Afsar Ali Khan (44) and hospital vendors Suman Hazara (46) and Biplav Singha (52).

TMC suspended its leader for one year after his video went viral on social media and led to a massive outrage
