At the time, junior doctors were protesting outside, demanding justice for the victim. Among these arrested were Jit Biswas, the son of a tea stall owner with no criminal history, and Soumik Das, who was apprehended in Dum Dumโs East Sinthee area.
Meanwhile, the Interrogation of Ghosh has been met with approval by the protesting students at R.G. Kar Hospital.
Did the CBI Detain Dr. Sandip Ghosh?
On Friday, August 16, the CBI brought Dr. Sandip Ghosh, the contentious former principal of R.G. Kar Medical College and Hospital, to their Salt Lake office for questioning regarding the r*pe and murder of a junior doctor on the hospital premises the previous week.
As of now, it remains unclear if Ghosh has been formally arrested or is merely being held for questioning. This development followed Ghoshโs attempt to seek police protection through a plea to the Calcutta High Court.

However, the court instructed him to file a proper petition, which will be considered for a hearing next week. Ghosh is currently on leave after the court ordered the state health department not to appoint him as the head of any medical college in West Bengal until further notice.
This order came after he resigned as principal of R.G. Kar on Monday, citing โmoral responsibility,โ only to be swiftly appointed as the principal of Calcutta National Medical College and Hospital, sparking protests from students and junior doctors at CNMCH.
