RG Kar rape and murder: Calcutta HC asks for case diary, poses questions to CBI
The Hindu
Calcutta High Court directs CBI to produce case diary in rape-murder case, considering gang rape and evidence destruction possibilities.
The Calcutta High Court on Monday (March 24, 2025) directed the CBI to produce the case diary related to its investigation into the rape and murder of an on-duty doctor at RG Kar hospital on the next date of hearing.
The Court asked whether the central agency was considering the possibility of gang rape or the destruction of evidence in its probe.
The petitioners, the parents of the postgraduate trainee at the medical college hospital, prayed for a Court-monitored investigation.
They claimed that while submitting the charge sheet before the trial court, the CBI had stated that a larger conspiracy was involved in the crime.
They, therefore, prayed for further investigation into the matter.
Justice Tirthankar Ghosh directed that the petitioners’ prayers would be considered, subject to the present stage of investigation and “the status report to be submitted by the Central Bureau of Investigation”.
He also directed the CBI to present the case diary on the next hearing date, March 28.
