Sandip Ghosh’s troubles are increasing continuously
In the Kolkata case, the troubles of Dr. Sandip Ghosh, former principal of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, are increasing continuously and new fronts are opening against him every day. On Wednesday, Sandip Ghosh got the first big shock when the High Court rejected his petition. Dr. Ghosh had pleaded for a ban on publishing and broadcasting news about him in the media.
After that, the second big blow came from the Bengal government. The government has cancelled the transfer order of Dr. Ghosh. Meanwhile, Kolkata Police has also intensified its crackdown on Sandeep Ghosh. The police has now summoned Dr. Ghosh in the case of revealing the identity of the deceased female doctor. However, he could not appear due to CBI interrogation and has asked for another date.
77 hours of interrogation done so far
CBI interrogated Sandip Ghosh for 13 hours on Wednesday. A total of 77 hours of interrogation has been done so far. But answers to many questions are still awaited. According to sources, Ghosh was asked whether he had insisted on conducting the post-mortem of the deceased in the medical college by doing RG? Did he not give permission for it anywhere else?
The source said, Ghosh’s answer will be re-examined. Dr. Ghosh has been facing questions from the CBI for six days in this case. On Wednesday, the CBI team again reached the medical college after conducting an RG and searched for the former principal’s car. The driver of the car was also questioned. Forensic experts examined the vehicle to know the details of its movements.
CBI is investigating for 8 days
In fact, the body of a 31-year-old female trainee doctor was recovered from Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College and Hospital on the night of August 9. The doctor had injury marks on her body and was bleeding. Investigation revealed that the doctor was raped and then murdered. The police arrested the accused Sanjay Roy and sent him to jail.
The incident caused outrage among the doctors and they went on strike. The Kolkata High Court transferred the investigation of the case from the police to the CBI. The CBI has been investigating the case for 8 days. Dr. Ghosh was appointed as the principal of the hospital in 2021.
