The CBI’s recent arrests of a former principal and a police officer shed light on a potential larger conspiracy in the Kolkata rape-murder case. Sandip Ghosh and Abhijit Mondol’s alleged roles in the crime have raised questions about attempts to shield perpetrators and manipulate the investigation.
In a shocking turn of events, former principal of RG Kar Medical College, Sandip Ghosh, and Tala police station officer-in-charge, Abhijit Mondol, were arrested in connection with the heinous rape and murder case of a junior doctor in Kolkata.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) suspects a larger conspiracy at play in this tragic incident, involving Ghosh and Mondol. The court in Sealdah has remanded both individuals in CBI custody until September 17, as the investigation unfolds.
According to CBI claims presented in court, Ghosh and Mondol allegedly played crucial roles in the crime and were in communication with each other. It is alleged that Ghosh even provided instructions to Mondol on how to handle the case, pointing to a disturbing level of coordination.
Seeking a three-day custody to conduct face-to-face interrogations, the CBI has accused the pair of attempting to minimize the severity of the crime and shield the culprits involved.
Mondol, in particular, faces a slew of charges including disturbing the crime scene, tampering with evidence, violating protocols, criminal conspiracy, and misleading investigators. His actions, such as delaying the filing of an FIR and hastening the victim’s cremation, have come under intense scrutiny.
The victim’s family has raised serious concerns about the conduct of the Kolkata Police, alleging that they tried to suppress the case by hastily cremating the body and even offering bribes to deter them from seeking justice.
On the other hand, the manager of the crematorium has refuted these claims, suggesting that the body may have decomposed due to delays between the autopsy and its arrival for cremation.
The case continues to unravel, shedding light on potential systematic failures and deliberate attempts to obstruct justice. As investigations progress, more details are expected to emerge, painting a clearer picture of the tragic events that transpired.
