Sanjay Roy found guilty of rape and murder of RG Kar doctor

In West Bengal, a local court in Kolkata on Saturday pronounced accused Sanjay Roy guilty of rape-murder of a trainee doctor at the state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. The Additional District and Sessions Court in Sealdah convicted Roy under sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita that deal with rape, murder, and causing death. The court said that Sections 64,66, 103/1 of BNS have been framed against the accused. "There is a complaint against the accused that he went to RG Kar Medical College and Hospital and went to the seminar room, assaulted and murdered the lady doctor taking rest there," the Court said. The court will pronounce Roy’s sentence on January 20. The case pertains to a 31-year-old trainee doctor who was found dead in the seminar hall of the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata on August 9, last year. The case was probed by the CBI following a High Court order.In a 160-page judgment, the Additional District and Sessions Court convicted Roy.
"I have criticised some activities of the police and hospital authorities which came out in the evidence. Activities of the HoD, MSVP and Principal created some confusion and that has been criticised," said judge Anirban Das while pronouncing the order. Roy repeated his claim that he was being framed as his lawyers tried to calm him down. When he was being taken out, he claimed a certain "IPS" knew everything. The court said it will hear him on Monday when it hears the arguments on the punishments he would undergo. The convict's claim of innocence contradicts his initial confession to the crime. The CBI, which had taken over the probe from Kolkata Police amid concerns of destruction of evidence, too had found him guilty.

In November last year, the CBI filed a chargesheet concerning financial irregularities at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. The chargesheet named Sandip Ghosh and others, including Dr. Ashish Kumar Pandey, Biplab Singha, Suman Hazra, and Afsar Ali Khan, for their involvement in financial misconduct. This investigation was initiated following an order by the Calcutta High Court.
