The case surrounding the rape and murder of a junior doctor at RG Kar Medical College & Hospital in Kolkata continues to unfold. Sanjay Roy, the sole suspect arrested in connection with the crime, saw his judicial custody extended for another 14 days on Friday by a special court in Kolkata. This decision comes amidst public outrage and intensified scrutiny of the investigation.
The court proceedings were marked by a tense moment when the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) faced the ire of the judge for their delayed appearance. The CBI's legal representatives were not present in court when Roy was presented for the hearing, prompting the judge to express his displeasure and even contemplate granting bail to the accused due to the lapse. The judge's stern reaction highlights the gravity of the situation and the need for the investigating agency to maintain professionalism and timely action.
The CBI's investigation into the case continues to progress, and the agency's recent actions suggest that they are pursuing every possible lead. Polygraph tests have been conducted on Roy, and reports indicate inconsistencies between his statements during normal interrogations and the polygraph test. This raises significant concerns about the veracity of Roy's claims, and further investigations are likely to focus on uncovering the truth behind his conflicting statements.
The public remains deeply concerned about the justice served in this tragic case. The family of the victim and the broader community are closely watching the developments in the investigation and demanding a swift and fair trial. As the investigation progresses, the court and the CBI face the challenge of navigating public pressure while ensuring a thorough and unbiased investigation. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining the direction of the case and bringing the perpetrators to justice.
