Calcutta High Court Criticizes CBI Over Slow Progress in RG Kar Case Investigation
The Calcutta High Court criticized the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for its slow and inadequate probe into the RG Kar Medical College rape and murder case, directed to a three-member SIT in May 2024. Judges questioned the destruction of key evidence and the limited scope of the investigation. The court warned it might transfer the case from the CBI if progress remains unsatisfactory. The victim's family urged handing the probe to West Bengal's CID if CBI fails to identify main culprits.
