As key suspects get bail in RG Kar case, TMC criticises CBI, BJP attacks state government
New Indian ExpressKOLKATA: The ruling TMC on Friday criticised the CBI after two key suspects in the rape and murder of the doctor at the RG Kar hospital got bail, while the opposition BJP attacked the state government, alleging that it did not provide enough support to the central agency in the investigation. The Sealdah court in Kolkata granted bail to RG Kar Medical College and Hospital's ex-principal Sandip Ghosh and former officer-in-charge of the Tala police station Abhijit Mondal in the rape and murder case of the on-duty doctor. TMC leader Kunal Ghosh said, "Despite going by the narrative of a section of protestors and the opposition, the CBI failed to conclusively prove the involvement of the two accused in the August 9 incident." Former BJP MP Locket Chatterjee said, "The CBI was stung by lack of support and assistance by the state administration and police who wanted to shield those close to the ruling dispensation."
