Meanwhile, the former principal of RG Kar Medical College and Hospital, Dr Sandip Ghosh, was on Saturday questioned for several hours by the CBI for the second consecutive day. He was seen re-entering the CBI office at the CGO complex in Salt Lake with a bunch of papers and files a little before 10.30 am on Saturday, and hadn’t left the premises till reports last received. The CBI sleuths also corroborated his version with that of doctors, interns, and nurses who were on duty at the hospital on that night. The probe agency has prepared a list of around 40 people, including doctors and police officers, whom they would be questioning as a part of its investigation, the officer said, adding, they have already quizzed over 20 people so far. A couple of psychologists from New Delhi also flew down to Kolkata on Saturday to take part in the questioning, the officer said. Separate teams of the central investigating agency also reached the crime scene at the RG Kar hospital and the barrack of the Kolkata Police's Armed Forces fourth battalion in Salt Lake, where the arrested prime accused, civic volunteer Sanjay Roy, was putting up.

Amit Malviya targets Mamata over cancellation of football match
BJP leader Amit Malviya targeted West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee over the cancellation of a football match between the East Bengal and Mohun Bagan derby to be held today.
"In an unprecedented move, Mamata Banerjee’s Police has cancelled Kolkata's most awaited football match, the East Bengal vs Mohun Bagan derby, scheduled for 18th Aug. The tickets were all sold out. REASON GIVEN: inability to provide security for the game. It speaks volumes about the condition of law and order in West Bengal, under Mamata Banerjee, if they are unable to provide security to around 60,000 people, let alone State’s 10 crore population. But the REAL REASON is: supporters of both East Bengal and Mohun Bagan were planning to carry posters and placards seeking justice for the RG Kar MCH rape and murder victim, along with a demand for Mamata Banerjee to resign. The game was cancelled fearing this kind of mass protest," he posted on X.
