Sanjay Roy, a civic volunteer linked to the Kolkata Police, has maintained his innocence in court regarding the horrific rape and murder case at the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital. However, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has presented a compelling chargesheet outlining a substantial amount of evidence against him.
The chargesheet, filed on Monday, meticulously details various types of evidence, including CCTV footage, DNA samples, blood stains, and hair, all pointing towards Roy’s involvement in the crime. The CBI investigation was initiated after the Calcutta High Court transferred the case to them on August 13th.
The chargesheet reveals that Roy’s DNA was found on the victim’s body, along with blood stains on his clothing and injuries consistent with a struggle. Furthermore, CCTV footage and mobile phone location data corroborate his presence at the crime scene.
The CBI has collected a total of 11 pieces of evidence, each contributing to the case against Roy. The chargesheet states, “His (Roy’s) presence in RG Kar Medical College & Hospital and also at the third floor of the emergency building where SoC (scene of the crime) lies, during the intervening night of August 8 and 9, is proved by way of CCTV footage. The location of his mobile phone proves his presence as per CDR.”
The Kolkata Police apprehended Roy on August 10th, following the discovery of the 31-year-old doctor’s body in the seminar room of the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital on August 9th. This case has shaken the city of Kolkata and the medical community, and the CBI’s investigation is crucial in ensuring justice for the victim and her family.
