Kolkata Doctor Rape And Murder Case, Former Principal Dr Sandip Ghosh Accused Of Corruption
According to India Today, former classmates and colleagues of Dr Ghosh claimed that the management committee of RG Kar Hospital was involved in corruption, illegal commissions and financial misconduct. They also directed corpses meant for post-mortem to unauthorized uses like the mafia. Another professor from West Bengal stated that despite coming 16th in the interviews, Dr Sandip Ghosh became the principal of RG Kar Medical College. Dr Akhtar Ali, a former deputy superintendent at the college added that Dr Sandip Ghosh is known for being very corrupt. Furthermore, in the past, he failed students and kept 20% of the profits for himself. RG Kar used to offer alcohol to students staying in the guest house and extort money from every medical college and hospital.
He is extremely strong, much like a mafia member, stated Dr Akhtar Ali. According to the investigations, the officers asked Sandip Ghosh to provide information about the phone calls he made before and after the horrific incident at the hospital. They wanted to know what the former principal did after he heard about the doctor’s death, who he talked to, and why he made the parents wait for almost three hours. The CBI is also checking what Sandip asked the doctors and interns who were working on the night of the incident. Furthermore, as a part of their investigation, they have questioned over 20 people, including a few Kolkata Police officers.
