Kolkata: Junior doctors in West Bengal staged a protest outside the CBI's Salt Lake office on Tuesday, demanding justice for the brutal rape and murder of a postgraduate trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College Hospital. The doctors accused the agency of unnecessary delays in the investigation.

Agitating junior doctors on Tuesday staged a protest outside the CBI's Salt Lake office here, accusing the agency of unnecessary delay in investigating the RG Kar case and collusion with the Kolkata Police to protect the criminals.

As part of their protest, the junior doctors symbolically locked the gate of the CBI office at the CGO Complex, demanding that the agency expedite the probe.

According to the PTI report, a confrontation took place when security personnel removed the symbolic lock from the gate, leading to a scuffle between the doctors and policemen deployed at the spot.

One of the protesting doctors expressed his frustration, saying, “We are losing hope in the way the CBI is handling the investigation. If this continues, it would be better if they shut down their office in Kolkata.” Another doctor added, “Even after so many days, our sister Abhaya has not received justice.
