Evidence proves Sanjay raped and murdered doc: CBI
Times of India | 3 January 2025
12 Kolkata: The CBI on Thursday argued at the Sealdah district court that biological sample results, CCTV grabs and witness' accounts pointed at arrested civic volunteer Sanjay Roy committing the rape and murder of the PGT doctor at RG Kar on Aug 9. This was after the deposition of 50 witnesses over two months.
The agency, which argued its case for nearly three hours, cited CFSL results and experts' opinions. It claimed Roy arrived at RG Kar at 3.20 am on Aug 9, entered the Emergency Building and reached the seminar hall at 4.03 am to find the victim sleeping there. The CFSL Kolkata report suggested the woman's clothes were torn open. CBI cited Multi-Institutional Medical Board report and said swabs collected corroborated presence of Roy's saliva, and it was matched by DNA profiling. Based on post-mortem and forensic reports, CBI said the doctor died of asphyxia owing to manual strangulation and smothering.
The agency said Roy committed the rape and murder and left the third floor at 4.32 am on Aug 9. Roy's lawyer, Sourav Bandyopadhyay, will argue on Saturday.
