In a pivotal development in the R G Kar hospital case, two junior doctors presented their testimonies on Wednesday, adding to the list of six witnesses so far. Their evidence may prove crucial in unraveling the alleged rape and murder of a medic.
Sanjay Roy, the primary suspect in this high-profile case, appeared before additional district and sessions judge Anirban Das at Sealdah Court. This marked the third day of hearings for Roy, conducted each day in-camera, under heavy security measures.
The victim, a postgraduate trainee doctor, was discovered dead in the seminar room at R G Kar Medical College and Hospital on August 9. The tragic event incited nationwide outrage and subsequently led to Roy's arrest by Kolkata Police. The Calcutta High Court has since ordered a CBI probe into the case.
