She asked for justice first. The statements were made just hours after prohibitory orders prohibiting meetings and gatherings of more than five people were placed by Kolkata Police in the vicinity of the state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. After a female doctor at the medical establishment was raped and killed, the hospital was the focus of unrest.
The hospital is now surrounded by Section 163(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, according to Kolkata Police. Prohibition orders have been put in place from the area around the hospital to the Shyambazar five-point crossing, according to a police release.
