Justice for RG Kar Rape-Murder: Distraught Family Seeks High Court’s Intervention for Fresh Investigation and Retrial

The parents of a victim in the R G Kar Medical College and Hospital rape-murder case are preparing to appeal to the Calcutta High Court for further investigation and a potential retrial. The family previously withdrew a petition from the Supreme Court questioning the existing legal proceedings, as the accused, Sanjoy Roy, had already been convicted. The Supreme Court advised waiting for the outcome of a similar plea before Calcutta High Court’s Justice Tirthankar Ghosh. The victim’s father, speaking to The Indian Express, expressed their intent to continue seeking justice, emphasizing that they are ready to welcome further inquiries and a retrial if necessary. He suggested that influential figures might be obstructing the truth, highlighting their ongoing concerns about not having seen police reports or been informed about vital evidence such as marks on the victim’s body. The case continues to be a significant point of contention and a pursuit of justice for the victim’s family.
