RG Kar Rape-Murder: Protesting medicos visit Bengal secretariat, demand speedy probe
Kolkata: The protesting doctors marched to the West Bengal secretariat on Thursday, urging the issuance of a “no-objection certificate” to facilitate the CBI’s investigation into the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital case.
According to the PTI report, some doctors also went to the CBI’s CGO Complex office and met the officers of the central agency to stress their demand to complete the probe into the R G Kar incident quickly.
“The chief secretary did not meet us. We went to meet him and submit our demand that the state government issues a clearance so that the CBI could complete its investigation in the financial irregularity case of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital,” one of the agitating doctors said.
