Kolkata: Union Minister Sukanta Majumdar, BJP MLA Paul visit residence of female trainee doctor victim, demand CBI probe

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], August 10 (ANI): Union Minister Sukanta Majumdar and West Bengal BJP MLA Agnimitra Paul visited the residence of the female post-graduate trainee (PGT) doctor who was found dead inside the seminar hall of the government-run R G Kar Medical College and Hospital.
Majumdar said that the government should take responsibility for the incident.
Sukanta Majumdar said, "A very shameful and horrific incident has happened. This is a repeat of the Nirbhaya case in Delhi. The kind of incident we are seeing shows that law and order is not good in West Bengal. It is not at all safe for the women. The government should take responsibility for the same. The CBI should investigate it."
He further said that the police tried to conceal the facts.
"Police tried their best so that the family does not speak much. The police tried to suppress all the evidence. If you ask for resignation from CM Mamata Banerjee, then it is like hurting own's dignity. Earlier in Hanskhali, a girl was raped and CM said that she was pregnant," he added.
Earlier, Agnimitra Paul demanded a CBI investigation and a re-postmortem by a Central Government hospital after a second-year medical student was found dead at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata on Friday.
Agnimitra Paul said, "The condition in which her body was found, completely naked with bruises all over it, makes it look like she was raped and then murdered. We demand a CBI investigation. You can't conduct a postmortem after evening, but they did it here. If postmortem is done under the state system, truth will be buried."
She further demanded a re-postmortem by a central government hospital.
"We want a re-postmortem by a central government hospital. This is all we demand so that she gets justice," she added. (ANI)
