"There are many hands involved in evidence tampering": RG Kar victim's father

Mar 17, 2025

New Delhi [India], March 17 : Father of the RG Kar rape and murder case victim on Monday expressed his concerns over the investigation alleging multiple individuals are involved in both the crime and tampering of evidence.
Speaking to ANI, he revealed that his family has filed a petition in the High Court, submitting 54 questions in hopes of obtaining justice for his daughter.
The father further accused West Bengal's Chief Minister of leading the evidence tampering process and stated that despite the police bringing in dog squads for the investigation, they have yet to receive any report.
"We have filed a case in the HC and submitted 54 questions. It is with the court to bring us those answers so that my daughter gets justice. Many men are involved in my daughter's rape and murder. And there are many hands involved in evidence tampering. West Bengal CM is leading the process of evidence tampering. Police had brought dog squads for investigation, but we have received no report of that so far. We have faith in the courts and the courts are working fairly, as per our wishes," the victim's father said,
RG Kar victim's lawyer, Karuna Nundy said, "Today was extremely urgent and the reason is that it has been 180 days since the accused Abhijit Mondol, the in charge of Tala Police Station, and Sandeep Ghosh, the Principal of RG Kar Medical College, they were arrested, and 90 days after that, Abhijit Mondol, who was accused of tampering evidence was given default bail with a Rs 2000 sureity and without any strict bail conditions."
She further said that they filed a petition before the HC asking that the Calcutta HC monitor the investigation of the CBI.
"Because it is a combination of our courts and the CBI that will result in the robust chargesheet. We made an application before the Supreme Court and the CJI has now allowed our application. We can now proceed with the petition in the Calcutta High Court. There were false reports that we had asked for a fresh investigation and that our plea was rejected," Karuna Nundy said.
The Supreme Court on Monday granted the parents of the victim in the RG Kar Medical College rape and murder case the liberty to approach the Calcutta High Court, where their plea is already filed.
A bench led by Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna allowed the deceased victims' parents to approach the Calcutta High Court, noting that a single judge bench of the High Court is monitoring the case.
On January 29, this year, the parents of the victim in Kolkata's RG Kar rape and murder case withdrew their plea before the Supreme Court seeking a fresh investigation into the incident.
The top court was hearing a suo moto case in the rape and murder of a trainee doctor, which took place at the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital.
