The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Sunday (Aug 25) raided 15 locations, including the residential premises of former RG Kar Medical College principal Sandip Ghosh, in connection to the horror murder-rape of a trainee doctor.&nbsp;

After the murder-rape incident first came to light, a case alleging financial irregularities at the Kolkata hospital has been&nbsp;filed against Ghosh, who seemingly has close relations with the upper echelons of Trinamool Congress (TMC) -- the ruling party in the state.&nbsp;

According to reports, the hospital&nbsp;under Ghosh was allegedly carrying out various illegal activities, that even included selling dead bodies.&nbsp;RG Kar Medical College's former deputy superintendent Akhtar Ali claimed that Ghosh was carrying out the trafficking of medical supplies and biomedical waste to Bangladesh.

<ul>
	<li>Is your name Sanjay Roy?</li>
	<li>Were you in the hospital on the day of the incident?</li>
	<li>Have you ever lied?</li>
	<li>Did you rape the victim?</li>
	<li>Did you kill the victim?</li>

	<li>Did you flee the hospital after the murder?</li>
	<li>Have you ever molested the victim before?</li>
	<li>Do you watch pornographic films?</li>
	<li>Did you visit a red-light area before the murder?</li>
	<li>Was your Bluetooth device broken in the seminar hall?</li>
	<li>Have you answered all the questions correctly?</li>
</ul>

An expert team from Delhi arrived in the capital city of West Bengal on Saturday (Aug 24) and conducted tests on four others. A total of seven people will be taking the polygraph test, which is expected to be completed on Sunday itself.&nbsp;

Roy, the main accused in this case, was on Friday sent to 14 days of judicial custody. He will remain in custody until September 6, under the supervision of CBI.

Kolkata doctor murder-rape: CBI raids hospital ex-principal's premises, polygraph test of accused underway

The father of a trainee doctor, brutally raped and murdered inside a state-run Kolkata hospital, has rejected compensation offered by the authorities. He insists that monetary compensation is not what he seeks, but rather justice for his deceased daughter.

"I have denied to take the compensation. It will hurt my daughter if I accept money as compensation for her death. I want justice," he told reporters.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) that is probing the rape and murder case, met with the deceased's family on Thursday (Aug 15).

The victim's father remained tight-lipped about the details of his meeting with the CBI. Nevertheless, he expressed confidence in the agency's assurance that the accused will be apprehended shortly.&nbsp;

He also extended his gratitude to the public for their unwavering support.

"It is not lawfully appropriate to give details on our conversation with the CBI. I can't give you details on the questioning that has been done in connection with this case. They have recorded our statement and taken it in writing...I express gratitude to everyone, regarding the protest that has been happening across the country and world. I consider everyone who is standing with us, as my sons and daughters...CBI has assured us that the accused will be arrested at the earliest and awarded strict punishment based on whatever we have told them," he added.

It may be mentioned here that the trainee doctor was raped and murdered inside the seminar hall of the state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata.&nbsp;

The victim had gone to the hall to rest during her graveyard shift.

The victim's post-mortem report revealed her private parts, eyes and mouth were bleeding, indicating she was brutally thrashed and subjected to ‘genital torture’.

Kolkata doctor rape-murder: Victim's father turns down compensation, demands justice

In a shocking twist to the Kolkata rape and murder case, the parents of the victim told the Calcutta High Court Wednesday (Aug 14) that a significant amount of semen was found in her body, implying gang rape.

In their petition, the parents cited the autopsy report while claiming that 150 mg of semen was found in the victim’s body, "a quantity suggesting involvement of more than one individual,” further corroborating the suspicion of gang rape. The post-mortem report clearly said that the cause of the death was strangulation of the neck and “there are clear signs of sexual assault,” said the petition.

“Their daughter's body bore several injury marks, indicating a brutal and violent attack," the petition said.

It must be noted that the authorities in the West Bengal state, where the crime happened, earlier arrested one individual named Sanjoy Roy before the case was handed over to the federal agency Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

“No step taken to arrest any other offenders while the evidence clearly indicates that their daughter was the victim of a gang rape and murder, a crime that could not have been committed by one person alone," the parents' petition said.

<h2>Court reprimands hospital administration</h2>

Earlier, the Calcutta High Court severely reprimanded the hospital authorities and RG Kar Medical College’s former principal Dr Sandip Ghosh for not diligently handling the sensitive case. The court asked why the administration didn’t file a police complaint after the body of the girl was found dead.

The parents in their petition said, "they have come to learn through reliable sources that evidence exists on record suggesting that at least three individuals were involved in the strangulation of their daughter". "The significant amount of semen found in her body further supports the involvement of multiple perpetrators," they told the court.

The parents also alleged inconsistencies in the autopsy report.

"Improper autopsy was done with a view to shield the others involved in their daughter's death," they said in the petition.

The rape and murder case has caused a massive uproar all over the country, with some demanding West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee tender her resignation.

<h2>Mamata responds</h2>

The CM on Wednesday condemned 'cheap politics' over the matter.&nbsp;

“Instead of standing with the (woman’s) family, CPI(M) and BJP are indulging in cheap politics. They think they can do a Bangladesh here. But let me tell you, I am not greedy for power,”&nbsp;Banerjee said. The statement came after&nbsp;BJP supporters held a protest march in the city.

Earlier, the leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, also broke his silence over the matter and wished for speedy investigation into the matter, while criticising the local administration and state government.

"The attempt to save the accused instead of providing justice to the victim raises serious questions on the hospital and the local administration," Gandhi said.
