Trainee doctor in Kolkata has shocked the nation. The crime occurred in the early hours of August 9, 2024, at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. The victim, a 31-year-old postgraduate trainee, was found dead in a seminar hall on the hospital premises. Her body was discovered partially undressed, indicating that she had been sexually assaulted before being murdered.
The main suspect, Sanjay Roy, a civic volunteer who worked as a broker at the hospital, was arrested after CCTV footage revealed his suspicious movements around the time of the crime.
