Amid a wave of protests demanding justice in the RG Kar rape and murder case of the state-run hospital's junior doctor, the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) intensified its criticism of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), which is leading the probe after Calcutta High Court handed over the case to it on August 13.
Moreover, the calls for accountability and truth have grown louder ever since, with TMC escalating its attack on the Central Agency amidst growing public outrage over lack of information about the status of the case.
Accusing the BJP of politicising "a despicable crime", TMC leaders and state ministers Bratya Basu and Shashi Panja, on Thursday, stating that the Kolkata Police (KP) had arrested the main culprit Sanjoy Roy within 24 hours of the incident, pointed out that since the probe was taken over by the CBI it failed to make any more arrests or “brief” KP about the developments of the probe.
“Why has the CBI gone silent?” asked the ruling party in Bengal.
Bratya Basu said: “We demand that the CBI brief everyone on the progress made in the RG Kar rape-murder case in the last 23 days through a press conference without any further delay.”
Basu also said that 23 days have passed since the CBI took the investigation but none has been arrested by the CBI in the rape and murder case.
