The woman trainee doctor's sexual assault and murder have sparked widespread outrage and led to protests within and beyond the medical community.
Teams from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) arrived at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata on Wednesday to investigate the rape and murder of a female trainee doctor.
Following the Calcutta High Court order, CBI has taken over the case and has sent specialised medical and forensic teams from Delhi. Meanwhile, Union Minister and West Bengal BJP President Sukanta Majumdar cast doubt on the female trainee doctor's death. He pointed out that, despite the large number of women MPs from TMC, none have made a public statement about the incident.
He added that two TMC MPs and three MLAs are alumni of the same medical college, yet they seem to have been silenced."In the doctor's team, many such topics have come up in their WhatsApp group, some screenshots of this have also reached us like drugs, racket, sex racket...One TMC MP's nephew's name keeps coming up repeatedly. I don't know what the truth is, but something seems off because despite so many women MPs from TMC, not a single one has spoken much after such a major incident. Two TMC MPs and three MLAs are alumni of the same medical college, yet they seem to have been silenced, indicating that something is amiss within the party," Majumdar said.
The woman trainee doctor's sexual assault and murder have sparked widespread outrage and led to protests within and beyond the medical community.
