Kolkata, August 19 (HS). Former principal of RG Kar Hospital, Sandip Ghosh, once again appeared at the CGO Complex on Monday morning. This is the fourth time the CBI has summoned him. Sandip Ghosh is being continuously questioned in the case of rape and murder of a female doctor. On Monday too, he was seen entering the CBI office with some documents, although he did not answer any questions from the media. It is not yet clear why he is being summoned again and again.

In the backdrop of the incident, the CBI is keeping an eye on Sandip Ghosh in this case. He was summoned on Thursday as well, but he did not appear that day. His lawyer had told the Calcutta High Court on Friday that Sandip Ghosh was worried about his safety and had demanded security. On the same day, he was brought to the CGO Complex in a CBI vehicle from the road. Since then, he is being called for questioning every day. On Sunday, after a long interrogation of about thirteen and a half hours, he returned to his home late at night. There was also a protest against this incident of RG Kar Hospital in front of his house. On Monday morning at 10:30 am, he again appeared in the CBI office.

Sandeep Ghosh is said to have a lot of influence in RG Kar Hospital. Protests started there as soon as the body of the female doctor was found, in which a major demand from doctors to students was that Sandeep Ghosh should be removed from his post or he should resign. Due to pressure, Sandeep Ghosh resigned on 12 August and went to the Health Department and submitted his resignation. But within a few hours, the state health department appointed him to the post of Principal in another government hospital in Kolkata. Protests started against this appointment as well, after which the Calcutta High Court directed that Sandeep Ghosh be sent on long leave. Since then he is on leave.

The CBI is investigating this case on the instructions of the High Court. The CBI has so far questioned doctors, students and many officials of the hospital and their statements have been recorded.

During the interrogation, Sandeep Ghosh has filed a case in the court accusing various news media of broadcasting false information about him. According to sources, many questions are being asked from him in connection with the incident of that day. After the body of the doctor was found in RG Kar Hospital, the wall of a room next to the same seminar hall was broken in the name of repair. It is alleged that Sandeep Ghosh may have instructed this too. Many questions are being raised about this sudden repair work and the CBI is questioning him about this.
