RG Kar Doctor Rape-Murder Case: CCTV reveals accused Sanjay Roy in corridor with Bluetooth device around his neck

Kolkata: In connection with the brutal rape and murder case of a Postgraduate medico at RG Kar Medical College Hospital, an exclusive CCTV footage went viral on social media which showed Sanjay Roy, the main accused in the case who is also dubbed as a 'sexual pervert with animal instincts' in CBI's psychoanalysis entering the corridor of the fourth floor of the medical facility moments before the heinous crime.

The exclusive footage of the accused, a civic volunteer captured in the hospital's CCTV obtained by India Today offers critical evidence in the case. According to the viral footage, the accused could be seen entering the fourth floor of the hospital at 4.03 am on August 9 heading towards the seminar room where the female doctor was allegedly raped and murdered.

As per an India Today news report, Roy in the footage is seen wearing jeans and a t-shirt, with a helmet in hand — a helmet that is notably part of the uniform issued to Kolkata Police personnel and a Bluetooth device hanging around his neck. The same Bluetooth device was later recovered from the crime scene which helped the Kolkata police arrest the accused after the device connected with Roy’s mobile phone.

However, the footage of Roy coming out from the seminar hall is unavailable but News 18 reported that Roy was purportedly seen coming out of the seminar room 40 minutes after he was seen entering through the corridor.

Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that the half-naked body of the deceased RG Kar PG Respiratory Medicine medico was recovered from the seminar hall of the hospital on Friday morning. A preliminary autopsy report has indicated sexual abuse before she was killed.

As per the inquest report, there was bleeding from the doctor's eyes and mouth, injury on the face and nails, bleeding from her genitals, and several other injury marks on different parts of her body. The civic volunteer was arrested the next day in this connection.

Soon after the news of this horrific incident came to light, doctors in Bengal and across the country started a massive protest demanding justice.

Court allows polygraph test on Sanjoy Roy

A special court in Kolkata on Friday allowed a polygraph test to be conducted on Sanjay Roy. The court has already given its nod to conduct the lie-detection test on Sandip Ghosh, the former principal of the medical college, and four other doctors who were on duty at the hospital on the intervening night of August 8-9.

CCTV footage and a Bluetooth device found near the medic’s body resulted in the arrest of Roy, who was seen entering the seminar hall of the college where the body was found.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is also awaiting Roy’s DNA and psychoanalysis reports, which will give further direction to its investigation.

The CBI told the Supreme Court on Thursday that there was an attempt to cover up the rape and killing of the post-graduate medic by the local police as the crime scene was altered by the time the federal agency took over the probe.

Animal-like Instinct, Addicted to pornography

Medical Dialogues had recently reported that the psychoanalytic evaluation of Sanjay Roy suggests that he was a pervert and severely addicted to pornography. A CBI officer said that the doctors from New Delhi’s Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL) informed that the civic volunteer of the Kolkata Police has an “animal-like instinct”.

“The man showed no repentance and narrated the entire episode giving every minute detail without hiccups. It appeared that he had no remorse,” the official of the central probe agency told PTI.

Several pornographic contents were found in the mobile phone that Roy was using and later seized by the Kolkata Police before the investigation was handed over to the CBI on an order of the Calcutta High Court.

The CBI officer said that pieces of evidence, both technical and scientific, “very much support” that the accused was present at the crime scene.

Referring to the CCTV footage collected from the hospital, he said, Roy could be seen near the chest department ward at around 11 am on August 8.

“Footage showed him entering the same building again at around 4 am on August 9. Certain technical and scientific evidence corroborated that,” he said.
