The investigation into the horrible rape-murder case in Kolkata has been intensified by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), with a renewed focus on the role played by a group of doctors from North Bengal. This occurred when CBI officers questioned Dr. Birupaksha Biswas, a doctor believed to be connected to this organization, in their Salt Lake, Kolkata, office.
CBI Questions Doctor Linked to North Bengal Faction in Kolkata Rape-Murder Case, a headline that’s grabbing attention across the state, brings into focus the gruesome August 9 rape and murder of a junior doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, Kolkata. Dr Biswas, who was recently transferred from Burdwan Medical College and Hospital to Kakdwip Hospital in South 24 Parganas, has now emerged as a key figure in this inquiry.
According to reports, the CBI’s interest in Dr Biswas stems from his suspicious presence at RG Kar Hospital on the day of the crime, despite having no formal engagement there. A CBI officer revealed, “He is being questioned about his presence at the RG Kar Hospital on August 9, and his connections with the so-called North Bengal lobby.” This “lobby” is alleged to be a network of doctors and officials notorious for threatening students and wielding undue influence at medical institutions across the state.
As the CBI questions a doctor linked to the North Bengal faction in the Kolkata rape-murder case, it’s clear that this faction’s reach extends far beyond this particular hospital. Dr Biswas, along with two other doctors – Avik De and Ranjit Saha – has been named in a First Information Report (FIR) for threatening students at various government-run medical institutions in West Bengal. This trio now faces charges under Section 351 of the new Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita, a provision concerning assault through gestures or actions that create fear of criminal force.
The investigation doesn’t stop with these threats. Dr Sandip Ghosh, the former principal of RG Kar Medical College, has also come under scrutiny. Ghosh, a close associate of Dr Biswas, was suspended for alleged financial irregularities at the hospital. He is now a central figure in the CBI’s probe, with investigators suspecting him of deliberately delaying the filing of the FIR in the rape-murder case by more than 14 hours. Further, CBI sources indicate that Ghosh may have been involved in a conspiracy to destroy evidence related to the crime.
This shocking development, as the CBI questions a doctor linked to the North Bengal faction in the Kolkata rape-murder case, has sent ripples through the medical community and the general public. The North Bengal faction, once operating behind closed doors, is now under the microscope. This investigation could potentially expose a network of corruption and coercion that has plagued West Bengal’s healthcare system for years.
The Kolkata rape-murder case has raised many questions, not only about the safety of medical professionals but also about the extent of internal corruption in these institutions. As the CBI questions a doctor linked to the North Bengal faction in the Kolkata rape-murder case, the hope is that justice will be served swiftly, bringing solace to the family of the victim and restoring faith in the system.
The investigation is ongoing, and with the CBI questioning doctors linked to the North Bengal faction in the Kolkata rape-murder case, new revelations are expected to come to light. All eyes remain on the CBI as they work tirelessly to uncover the truth behind this heinous crime.
