Kolkata:
An hour after midnight, a CCTV screen grab of the suspect entering the hospital was made public by investigators in the rape and murder case of a junior doctor in a Kolkata hospital.
An further item seen on camera is the suspect’s Bluetooth earpiece wrapped around his neck. The woman’s body was discovered inside the seminar hall at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, and during the preliminary inquiry, the police claimed to have discovered a pair of Bluetooth earphones from the crime scene.
The sources stated that Sanjay Roy may be seen entering the hospital at 1.03 am on the CCTV footage. According to sources, Sanjay Roy confessed to the crime after the police showed him the CCTV footage during his questioning.
Sanjay Roy visited two brothels in Kolkata before arriving at the hospital at 1.03 am on the night the junior doctor was sexually assaulted and killed, according to the police. According to accounts, on August 8th he went to Sonagachi, a red light district, drank beer, and went to two brothels consecutively.
Then, after midnight, he visited the hospital. At this same moment, he was captured on camera going in and out of the seminar hall where the young doctor had gone to bed.
Protests have been triggered by the case all around the nation. In Kolkata, there have been particularly strong protests.
Sanjay Roy was given permission to take a polygraph test yesterday by a special court in Kolkata. Sandip Ghosh, the former principal of the medical college, and the other four doctors who worked at the hospital on the intervening night of August 8–9 are set to undergo a lie-detection test, as approved by the court.
In the horrific rape and murder case at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, new information has emerged showing that Sanjay Roy, the primary accused, had been following the victim for a day before to the crime. On August 8, surveillance film from the hospital’s thoracic ward captures Roy, a 33-year-old community volunteer, menacingly gazing at the 31-year-old physician and four of her less experienced colleagues.
Roy then admitted to the Kolkata police, according to sources, that he had followed the victim around the hospital grounds that day. He may be seen sneering at the gathering on the video, hinting at the horrible crime that will take place the following day.

In connection with the horrific rape and death of a second-year postgraduate trainee doctor at RG Kar Hospital, civic volunteer Sanjay Roy has been detained by Kolkata Police. Only a few hours after a Special Investigation Team (SIT) was established to look into the situation, the arrest took place on Saturday. Roy, 33, was seized by the SIT to be questioned
Sanjay Roy, the main accused: how did he get caught?
Since joining the police in 2019, Sanjay Roy has been assigned to the police outpost at RG Kar Hospital, which allows him access to all departments. An earpiece that was torn and recovered in the lecture room where the doctor’s body was located is one of the main pieces of evidence that connects him to the crime. Roy was seen on CCTV entering the emergency building at four in the morning while wearing a Bluetooth device around his neck. Forty minutes later, when he stepped out of the building, the earpiece was gone. Roy’s cell phone was then linked with the device.
Vineet Goyal, the police commissioner, said, “We collected evidence all through the night and arrested the accused due to his strong complicity in the case based on items collected from the spot and CCTV footage.” Roy was brought before Sealdah court, but no attorney expressed interest in representing him. He has been placed in police custody for 14 days by the court. The RG Kar incident was likened by the public prosecutor to the Nirbhaya case of 2012.
At Bengal’s other hospitals, protests began at RG Kar Hospital and quickly expanded there. Interns, house staff, and junior physicians from CNMC, Medical College, and NRS did not report to work. They wanted stricter penalties for the accused and increased security.
