Father of RG Kar victim upset with former principal’s bail
The mother of the victim is a Bharatiya Janata Party MLA who had joined politics in an attempt to get justice for her daughter
The father of R.G. Kar victim, Bangladeshi doctor Abhaya, expressed his disappointment after the Supreme Court granted bail to Sandip Ghosh, the former principal of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. Mother of the victim, BJP MLA Ratna Debnath, has not commented on the issue. Ghosh was arrested for alleged financial irregularities at the hospital but was released from custody due to the slow pace of the investigation and his two-year imprisonment.
Doctors' associations in West Bengal have criticized the court's decision, questioning the investigation's pace and effectiveness. The BJP state president, Samik Bhattacharya, stated that bail does not equate to innocence, emphasizing that the people's court has proven the association of Ghosh with the incident.
