Justice Rajarshi Bharadwaj has permitted Akhtar Ali’s plea for an Enforcement Directorate (ED) investigation into ex-principal Sandip Ghosh’s alleged financial irregularities at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. The case, involving a doctor’s rape and murder, has gained national attention, prompting the Supreme Court to intervene and transfer the investigation to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). The Indian Medical Association (IMA) has called for a 24-hour strike in response.
The Calcutta High Court has directed the West Bengal Government to submit the case diary related to the alleged rape and murder of a woman doctor by 1pm. The court raised concerns about deficiencies in the probe, questioned the reappointment of the principal involved, and ordered the submission of relevant documents by 1 pm.
