Horror in North Calcutta: Woman Doctor Sexually Assaulted and Murdered In Government Hospital. Calcutta police to ensure ‘highest punishment’ for accused.
In a tragic and horrifying incident, the body of a woman doctor was found inside a seminar hall at a government-run hospital in North Calcutta. The preliminary autopsy report has confirmed that she was sexually assaulted before being brutally murdered.
The local police, led by a senior officer, have arrested a suspect based on circumstantial evidence and eyewitness accounts from other doctors who were on duty during the night of the crime. The suspect, an outsider with suspicious behavior, had inexplicably free access to various departments of the hospital, raising questions about the security protocols in place.
To ensure a thorough and transparent investigation, a Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been formed. The police have vowed to collect all necessary evidence and have assured that the arrested individual will face the harshest penalties if found guilty. The case has been registered under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), treating it as both a homicide and a sexual assault.
This heinous crime has sent shockwaves through the medical community and the general public, raising serious concerns about safety and security in what should be safe spaces like hospitals.
