The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has launched a scathing attack on the West Bengal government, accusing it of attempting to cover up the brutal rape and murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata. The allegations stem from the victim's family's claims that they were offered money by the district collector and pressured by the police to sign blank papers while they were grieving their daughter's death.
BJP MP Sambit Patra, in a press conference, highlighted the victim's father's questions, which he believes point to suspicious actions by the Mamata Banerjee-led government. Patra argued that the family's accusations raise serious concerns about a possible cover-up, emphasizing the significance of these questions in the investigation.
The victim's family, in their statements, described their harrowing experience with the police. The victim's aunt expressed her shock and outrage at the police offering money to the family while they were mourning their daughter's death. The family's account of being offered money while in such a vulnerable state has sparked widespread outrage and skepticism.
Patra further questioned the police's actions, emphasizing the three-hour delay in informing the family about the incident. He questioned the purpose of keeping the family waiting and the authorities' motives behind sending the father to the principal's office. The unusual delay and lack of transparency in informing the family only add fuel to the fire of suspicions surrounding the case.
The most concerning allegation is the demand for the victim's family to sign blank papers. Patra questioned the purpose of this request, raising serious concerns about potential manipulation and coercion. The family's claims, if true, suggest an attempt to suppress evidence or influence their statements.
The BJP has demanded answers from the West Bengal government, calling for a thorough and impartial investigation into the doctor's murder. The party has emphasized the need to address the family's concerns and ensure justice for the victim. The incident has sparked public outrage and raised serious questions about the safety and security of women in West Bengal. The BJP's accusations and the family's claims have put the Mamata Banerjee government under intense scrutiny, demanding accountability and transparency in their handling of this sensitive case.
