The Kolkata rape and murder case involving a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College has led to widespread protests by doctors across India, demanding justice and improved security measures. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has been investigating the case, focusing on former principal Dr. Sandip Ghosh, who has been questioned for multiple days. The CBI's findings suggest lapses in protocol and potential tampering with the crime scene. Accused Sanjay Roy allegedly visited red-light areas before the crime. The Supreme Court is overseeing the case, urging protesting doctors to return to work with assurances of no adverse action against them. CISF has taken over security at the hospital. The case has garnered significant attention, with the CBI expected to submit a detailed status report to the Supreme Court during the hearing.
