Ahead of the fourth hearing in the RG Kar Medical College doctor's rape-murder case in the Supreme Court on Tuesday, probe agency ED is conducting raids. Early on Tuesday, the central agency conducted raids at six more locations in Kolkata.
Among the locations, the raid is going on in the house of TMC MLA Sudipto Roy and a medicine dealer Sandeep Jain (at Ballygunge Circular Road) in the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital corruption case.
Less than 24 hours ago, the protesting doctors in Kolkata secured a major victory as Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had to accept some of their key demands. Srirampur Trinamool MLA Sudipta Roy is also the chairman of RG Kar Medical's Patients' Welfare Association.
Earlier in the RG Kar Medical College corruption probe, the ED had raided three places, including Sandip Ghosh's Chinar Park house. Sandip Ghosh's mother and father were called for questioning as well. The central agency also raided the house of Chandan Lauha, a close aide of Sandip Ghosh, and the office of the medical equipment supplier.
