The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) officers questioned the former principal of RG Kar Medical College, Sandip Ghosh, for the fourth consecutive day on Monday in connection with their probe into the Kolkata rape-murder case.
On August 9, a 31-year-old on-duty postgraduate trainee was brutally raped and murdered at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. The incident has triggered nationwide protests, especially by the medical fraternity, over the safety of doctors as well as women. The Kolkata Police, which was earlier probing the case, had arrested a civic volunteer for the crime. Following concerns of coverups, the victim`s parents approached the Calcutta High Court, which handed over the probe to the central agency.
