Calcutta HC grants conditional nod for doctors’ protest in RG Kar rape-murder case

The Calcutta High Court on Thursday granted conditional permission to the West Bengal Joint Platform of Doctors, an umbrella group of senior medical professionals, to hold a sit-in demonstration in central Kolkata.

The protest is organized in response to the bail granted to two individuals accused of tampering with evidence in the brutal rape and murder case of a woman postgraduate doctor at RG Kar Medical College & Hospital in August.
