Kolkata Rape-Murder Case: Why Wasn’t the Principal Questioned? High Court Orders CBI Probe, Threatens to Send Him on Leave

Kolkata Rape-Murder Case: The Calcutta High Court ordered a CBI probe into a trainee doctor's rape-murder case, questioning the investigation's integrity and demanding the West Bengal government place Dr. Sandip Ghosh on leave.

Kolkata Rape-Murder Case: On Tuesday (August 13), the Calcutta High Court ordered a CBI inquiry into the rape-murder case of a trainee doctor. The court reprimanded the West Bengal government over the investigation. The division bench headed by Chief Justice T S Sivagnanam asked why the police have not yet questioned Dr Sandip Ghosh, the then principal of RG Kar Medical College.

The High Court said that something is missing in the investigation. When Dr. Sandeep Ghosh resigned from the post taking moral responsibility, how could he be appointed in another medical college immediately after his resignation? He should have been questioned first, but this did not happen.

The court told the West Bengal government to send Sandip Ghosh on a long leave. If you do not do anything, we will have to pass an order. He is not much affected by the doctor’s death. He should stay at home, there is no need to work anywhere.

The principal had said – the trainee doctor was like my daughter

Dr Sandeep Ghosh resigned on Monday (August 12) saying that the trainee doctor was like my daughter. As a parent, I am resigning. However, within 12 hours the state government appointed him as the principal of Calcutta Medical College and Hospital. The doctors are very angry about this.

The Calcutta High Court is hearing several petitions related to the rape-murder case of the trainee doctor. One of these petitions is filed by the parents of the trainee doctor, in which they had demanded a court-monitored investigation into their daughter’s death.

Kolkata Rape-Murder Case: Court Room live

Vikas Ranjan Bhattacharya ( lawyer for the doctor’s parents): We were first told that she (victim) was ill. Then it was said that she committed suicide. The parents were called to the hospital. They were made to sit for three hours. The police asked them to settle the matter. The CM says that the case will be handed over to the CBI after a few days. By then the evidence will be destroyed.

Chief Justice Sivagnanam: If it is true that someone told the parents that she was ill and then committed suicide, then there has been a lapse somewhere.

Vikas Ranjan Bhattacharya ( lawyer for the doctor’s parents) : It is on record that the police have registered a case of suicide.

State Government: All such cases are registered as unnatural deaths.

Court: The victim was part of the system. Some sensitivity should have been shown towards her. She spent her life working for the system. If it is true that her parents were made to wait in the hospital and were misled, then the administration is playing with them. You cannot treat the deceased like this.

Court: The principal had resigned due to moral responsibility. The government rewarded him with a second appointment letter within 12 hours. Then there is a fear that something wrong will happen if time is wasted in the investigation.

Vikas Ranjan Bhattacharya ( lawyer for the doctor’s parents) : Ask them to give the case diary. This has happened before. The current CP has messed up the investigation before as well. The case diary should be brought at 2 pm.

State Government: We will show a report tomorrow.

Court: We will give you time but how will you ensure that nothing goes wrong in the meantime?

State Government: ACP-I is supervising.

Vikas Ranjan Bhattacharya ( lawyer for the doctor’s parents): Then he will be transferred.

Court: The principal will not work. Let him go on a long leave. Otherwise we will give an order.

Court: Did the principal give a statement?

State: No. We’ll take it.

Court: What is this? His statement should be recorded first. He is not above the law. How did this happen? Why are you protecting him? Let him speak the truth. Something has gone wrong here.
