Mondal, who was arrested on Saturday evening in connection with the central agency’s probe into the RG Kar hospital incident, will be produced before the Sealdah court on Sunday.

Sleuths of the CBI were seen jostling with the protesters while departing the CGO Complex with Mondal.

Mondal has been arrested for allegedly tampering evidence, delay in registering the FIR among other charges, an official said.

The body of the postgraduate woman doctor was recovered in the seminar hall of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital on August 9.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has been conducting the probe into the rape and murder of the woman medic, following a Calcutta High Court order.
