He had said that there were already three bodies at the crematorium, but his daughter’s body was cremated first. Now the crematorium manager has said that the police wanted the doctor’s body to be cremated first. In such a situation, questions can be raised on the Kolkata Police that why did it insist on cremating the doctor’s body first? However, the postmortem report of the female doctor’s body has confirmed that she was raped. Also, more than 14 injury marks have been found on her body.
A female doctor pursuing PG at RG Kar Medical College in Kolkata was raped at around 3 am on the intervening night of 8 and 9 August 2024. After which she was strangled to death.
