RG Kar: Parents 'dismayed' with judgment; to continue fight till justice is delivered

Deccan Chronicle  

Kolkata: The parents of the deceased medic in the RG Kar hospital rape-murder case said that they were not satisfied with the verdict of the court pronouncing life imprisonment till death for the convict. Claiming that the investigation was done half-heartedly and several other culprits involved in the crime were shielded, they said they would move to the higher court seeking justice. The judge said the crime did not fall under the "rarest of the rare" category, which justified not imposing the death penalty on the convict. A Kolkata court sentenced Sanjay Roy to imprisonment till death on Monday after he was convicted of the rape and murder of the on-duty doctor at the state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in August last year.
