New Delhi, August 20
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has constituted a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate the allegations of financial irregularities at RG Kar from 2021 to the present during the tenure of former head Dr. Sandip Ghosh.
Waquar Reza, DIG of Murshidabad Range, Soma Das Mitra, DIG of CID, and Indira Mukherjee, DCP of Kolkata Police will be part of the SIT. The panel has been tasked to submit its first report to the Bengal government within a month.
A case of corruption has been filed against Dr Sandip Ghosh in connection with the gruesome rape and murder of a woman trainee doctor at Kolkata's RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. A written complaint has been filed by Debal Kumar Ghosh, Senior Special Secretary, Bengal health department.
The CBI now probing the rape-murder case of a Kolkata doctor, has been interrogating Sanjoy Ghosh who has been at the centre of the investigation into the rape and murder of the postgraduate trainee doctor on August 9 because of his handling of the case.
It has come to the fore that Ghosh was asked to specify his role after getting the news of the death of the doctor, who he had contacted thereafter and why he made the parents wait for almost three hours before they could see their daughter's body. He was also questioned about who had ordered renovation of the rooms adjacent to the seminar hall where the postgraduate trainee's body was found in semi-naked condition on August 9.
The CBI sought polygraph test of Sanjoy Roy, a civic volunteer with Kolkata Police, who was arrested in connection with the case. Roy has confessed to the gruesome crime to police during his arrest and made audacious statements to hang him for the crime.
