RG Kar Medical College and Hospital has started dismantling the crime scene tied to the rape and murder of the female post-graduate trainee doctor—just one day before the CBI is set to take over the investigation.
This "renovation" raises serious questions about the timing and the true motives behind it. Many are left wondering if this is an attempt to tamper with crucial evidence under the guise of urgency.
The Calcutta High Court, on Tuesday, ordered the transfer of the probe to the CBI, directing the Calcutta Police to hand over all case-related documents by Wednesday morning.
As the handover approaches, students and citizens are alarmed by the sudden renovation activity within the hospital, particularly in the Chest Medicine department where the crime occurred.
The seminar hall, where the doctor was allegedly raped and murdered, is now under renovation—a move that has left many outraged. "How can they start breaking the crime scene when the investigation is ongoing?" one student protester who wished to remain anonymous told the Telegraph Online on Tuesday.
“This is evidence tampering in broad daylight!” said Calcutta district secretary of SFI, Didhiti Roy to the Telegraph Online, adding that the authorities are showing a "shameless sense of urgency".
The timing of this "renovation" couldn't be more suspicious.
With the CBI set to step in, one would expect the crime scene to be meticulously sealed, not hastily broken down.
Crime scenes are supposed to be sealed off until every evidence is accounted for. But here? It feels like we're watching crucial pieces of a puzzle being swept under the rug—before the truth can even begin to emerge.
“Who are they trying to protect?”, another protester questioned, voicing the growing suspicion among students and activists.
