AMID partial resumption of duties by protesting doctors after a gap of 42 days since the rape-murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, CBI sleuths on Saturday started questioning another doctor, allegedly close to Sandip Ghosh, the former principal of the college, a CBI officer said.
Birupaksha Biswas is one of the three doctors against whom an FIR has been lodged. The two other doctors - Avik De and Ranjit Saha - and Biswas have been charged with threatening students at different medical colleges and hospitals across West Bengal. They have been booked under Section 351 (assault as making a gesture or preparation causing someone to believe that they are about to be subjected to criminal force) of Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita.
Biswas, who was recently transferred by the health department from Burdwan Medical College and Hospital to remote Kakdwip hospital in South 24 Parganas district, appeared before CBI officers at its CGO Complex office in Salt Lake area.
