The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has been interrogating Dr. Sandip Ghosh, former principal of RG Kar Hospital, daily for the past 15 days and has even administered a polygraph test. Despite these efforts, the investigation into the Kolkata doctor rape-murder case remains unresolved.
Dr. Ghosh’s Attempt to Shift Blame
Dr. Sandip Ghosh had attempted to shift the blame regarding why hospital officials initially misled the victim’s parents, according to a report by News 18.
Delay in Informing Hospital Principal
The CBI is focusing on why there was a 30-minute delay in informing the hospital principal about the crime. The authorities had initially told the victim’s family that their daughter had died by suicide before notifying Ghosh. The agency is also investigating why Ghosh’s aides were present in the seminar hall if he was not informed about the incident.
